Well, it's been a long, long while

Almost a year now to the day

Since I was sent on my way

I got a place to stay

Down in that old suburban high-rise

Where the first timer buys

Every day is overcast

And the trains are always late

My head is somewhere in the past

So I hang around and wait for time to pass

It's probably my mistake

And certainly no one else?s heartache

I'm just another one to break

But a boy can get so confused

When there is nothing left to lose

I guess it's just my luck

That every lie I've tried to buy

Was never up for sale

These sour times weigh heavy

And have already tipped the scale

My oh my and hallelujah

Cross my heart and hope to die

I can swear my luck is changing

It's a welcome stranger here

?Cause I'm running out of change

For my wishing well

So wish me well, wish me well

Wish me well

Wish me well

Wish me well
