lyrics

I spend every night on my knees
In the shadow of a wishing tree
Branches swaying in the evening sun
I sit and think about the things I’ve done

Oh my darling, oh my gal
Careful what you ask of me
Only thing I’m good for now
Is blowing kisses at the wishing tree

Crossed my heart beside the wishing brook
Trying to salvage what the bad years took
But in the ripples and the dark below
Only answer was an undertow

Oh my darling oh my gal
Careful where you drop your hook
Only thing I’m good for now
Is casting out into the wishing brook

Threw my money in the wishing pool
Just like every other desperate fool
Trying to tempt the gods and change my fate
Just a little too little too late

Oh my darling oh my gal
I love a story where the dream comes true
Only thing I’m good for now
Is throwing money in the wishing pool

Oh my darling oh my gal
Can’t get a thing in this life for free
Only thing I’m good for now
Is blowing kisses at the wishing tree
