Wish Me Well - Magnet

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

Now every day is overcast, & the trains are always late

My head is somewhere in the past

So I hang around & wait for time to pass

It’s probably my mistake, & certainly no-one elses 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, & have already tipped the scale

My oh my & hallelujah, cross my heart & hope to die

I can feel my luck is changing

It’s a welcome stranger here

Cos I’m running out of change for my wishing-well

So wish me well
