Wishing Well

Dandelions flow 
Over the river
Throw a penny in
The wishing well of dreams
Life is cheap as angels sleep

Kick the stone, kick the wall
Push to live, this is life
Poppy fields and sunsets 
Bring up the ghost of
Christmas past and you

Buried now, is this it?
Complete darkness ahead
Wake me up, this can't be
Wishing well of dreams
Has me hooked on you
