Wishing Well

I was addicted to Intervention; watching every episode I would cry, just hearing the music, would make me cry I would watch alone, wishing you'd be well Wishing that my love, my compassion, my care for you could crawl up the stairs to where you were drinking, alone and convince you to stop Wishing that it could touch you, that somehow you'd feel how much it hurt to watch someone slowly, killing our love slowly, killing themselves Crying didn't work, compassion didn't work, and caring didn't work Wishing didn't work Wishing then slowly, turned to needing for both of us Now, I wish I could just wish you well
