The Wishing Well(Album Version) - Trent Willmon

The Wishing Well - Trent Willmon
Well I run a little tavern on a dead end street
My ears are pretty bent
By the time I close at three
Everybody's got a wish that comes in here
A little amnesia for the price of a beer
And dale knows that I know all about his wife
And what it is she's doing
Who she's with tonight
But I don't say a word about it
And neither does he
He just talks about them dodgers
Buys another drink
Down at The Wishing Well
Forgetfulness is what's for sale
To help wash away the sin of lovers and friends
Or just forgive themselves
A place to throw their money down
In hopes of getting lost or found
You ought to hear the stories
They don't tell
Down at The Wishing Well
They say Gina was a heartbreaker
Back in her day
But years and hard living
Put the lines on her face
Now she only wants a man
Who can see her like before
So she sips her margarita watches the door
Down at The Wishing Well
Forgetfulness is what's for sale
To help wash away the sin of lovers and friends
Or just forgive themselves
A place to throw their money down
In hopes of getting lost or found
You ought to hear the stories
They don't tell
Down at The Wishing Well
Yeah I'll pour you a drink seven nights a week
And I'll listen to what you say or you don't
'Cause that's how I forget
The reasons that I'm alone
Down here at The Wishing Well
Forgetfulness is what's for sale
To help wash away the sin of lovers and friends
Or just try to forgive ourselves
A place to throw our money down
In hopes of getting lost or found
You ought to hear the stories
They don't tell
Down at The Wishing Well
You ought to hear the stories
We don't tell
Down at The Wishing Well
