GCould you give me a wish if I tell you what DI want?
GWill the price be no oD(add11)bject?
CI wish for dreams of light
DI live for wishing well suprise
Deepest light, the secret lies
Wishing well gives you all that you desire
Homes and trains, and the greenest of plains
That you ever happened upon
The silent wish, it calls you out
Calls you out by name
Lays upon the plain, on the mountain high
city lights, wish delights
What if the waters and wishes appear?
Will the price be no object?
I wish for dreams of light I live for wishing well suprise

EmWish againF#m, four times GagainFour wishAes deep into the Bwell
There's a price you pay for a wish to come true
Trade a small piece of your life
Roots the soil, uprooting the soil
Mountain high, the mountains high
The wish is only to speak a kind
Kind of word, so benign absurd
The well, three wishes run dry
Wishing well is dry
When no grass grows, the weeds run in line
Wish three wishes, three wishes run dry
Four wishes deep into the well
