The Ballad of Fortune

歌詞

You threw all your money into the wishing well All to bring luck wealth and success Prosperity and affection The future was all that you needed To put the world at your feet Depended on hope trusted in fate For things to come your way I want to rise from this ditch i want to be rich I will pay every fee if you please come to me I will hitchhike my way back home I will crawl bleed and groan If you just make my will come true My new life starts here with you Upon a face a smile, so new As the years went by you had to revise your account Taking your time limit the claims Aiming a little lower Misfortunes they did not stop you you were looking the other way You always knew that beyond the next bend You'll find the rainbows end Something's are meant to be Some must be meant for me And you could see for miles, you could see for miles You could see for miles, miles and miles... In search of a fortune and everyday treasure Thats what you deserve If you finally win your life would begin That's a state you would prefer Do you know where you are cause this state is so far There's a chance this can go wrong But you could see for miles, yes you could see for miles You could see for miles, miles and miles Sometimes i've been on the border of the land where dreams come true But it's always the same i'm back once again To the square where i once started out Now when i'm old and lonely i've come to realize It was a waste back at the well Now i'm waiting for a change
