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
