Lyrics

Wishing Well
Words and music by J. Lundeen

Daddy left town he was never around
Momma raising us by herself
Anytime I found I would walk on down
Throw my penny in the wishing well
And while I closed my eyes
I’d try to turn back time
Cause I could change the world at the wishing well

The years went by always on my mind
But my Daddy never did come home
After the cryin’ use whatever I’d find
To try and soothe this bloodshot soul
Was such a friend to me
Erased my memories
Cause I could change the world at the wishing well

Bridge
Please won’t you tell
My Dad to come Home
Tired of standing alone
My heart is turning to stone
At the wishing well

Was in the dark he came and changed my heart
And said son you’ve got to let him go
Right from the start I’ve always been your father
You’re my son and I love you so
And I could finally see
This life you’ve given me
Your love can change the world you’re the wishing well
