Chris Rea - Wishing Well lyrics

There's a dream that has no ending There's a love that cannot be There's a ghost without the chains of love Who will never ever be free And gather round the rich man Their own souls to sell Down in the darkness Of the wishing well There's a way to find peace That nobody cares to own The sacrifice that's needed May be way to close to home There's a charter of freedom Where the last soldier fell All in the darkness Of the wishing well There's a whisper of light Way above their desires While they sit in the dark And dream of bright skies What they wanted so bad Don't exist in it's place The idea of changing Is too hard to face Down in the darkness Of the wishing well So they sit at the bottom And they gaze with sad eyes That grow larger than envy Til they split at the sides And they sleep in the mess Of the last soul that fell Down in the darkness Oh, down in the darkness Of the wishing well
