Walk me down to the wishing well

one more piece of the puzzle, I'm there  

gotta get lucky gotta get that done  

little bit of luck never hurt no one  

come on take me down, down, down....  

I'm in a cold sweat  

Lord don't let me drown, drown, drown, drown  

in mother earth's soul, yet  

under darken skies  

we'll see the light  

broken now I can't help but feel  

someone cracked the seventh seal  

nothing sacred, nothing left unturned  

when nothing's simple then nothing's learned  

so take me down to the virgin spring  

wash away my suffering, oh  

splash that holy water on me  

wash my eyes so I can see  

come on take me down, down, down....  

I'm in a cold sweat  

Lord don't let me drown, drown, drown, drown  

in mother earth's soul, not yet  

Lord I think I found, found, found....  

my mother lode, hey

there's a time and place for everything, for everyone  

we can push with all our might, but nothing's gonna come  

oh no, nothing's gonna change  

and if I asked you not to try  

oh could you let it be  

I wanna hold you and say

you can change your friends, your place in life  

you can change your mind  

we can change the things we say  

and do it anytime  

oh no, but I think you'll find  

that when you look inside your heart  

oh baby, I'll be there

and all I can remember  

is how hard we tried  

only to surrender  

and when it's over  

I know how it's gonna be  

and true love will never die  

no, not fade away  

I can't stop lovin' you  

and no matter what you say or do

and always trust  

to love somebody tenderly  

the tender touch  

is not enough
