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
