As I´m sittin´ in the taxi for the sky
He´s off to slay some demon dragonfly
And he looks at me, that long last time
Turns away again and I waved goodbye
In an envelope, inside his coat
Is a chain I wore, around my throat
Along with, a note I wrote
Said "I love you but, I don´t even know why"

But darling, I wish you well
On your way to the wishing well
Swinging off of those gates of hell
But I can tell how hard you´re trying
Just have this secret hope
sometimes all we do is cope
Somewhere on the steepest slope
There´s an endless rope
And nobody´s crying

Well a long night turns into a couple long years
Of me walkin´ around, around this trail of tears
Where the very loud voices of my own fears
Is ringin´ and ringin´ in my ears
It says that love is long gone
Every move I make is all wrong
Says you never gave a damn for me
For anything, for anyone

But darling, I wish you well
On your way to the wishing well
Swinging off of those gates of hell
But I can tell how hard you´re trying,
Just have this secret hope
Sometimes all we do is cope
Somewhere on the steepest slope
There´s an endless rope
And nobody´s crying

May you dream you are dreaming, in a warm soft bed
And may the voices inside you that fill you with dread
Make the sound of thousands of angels instead
Tonight where you might be laying your head

I wish you well
On your way to the wishing well
Swinging off of those gates of hell
But I can tell how hard you´re trying
Still have this secret hope
Sometimes all I do is cope
Somewhere on the steepest slope
There´s an endless rope
And nobody´s crying
Nobody´s crying
Nobody´s crying
