Lyrics Christopher Cross

Christopher Cross

Wishing Well

In this land of accessories

The obsolescent sheen

Like so many fools before us

Lost in dreams

What's behind the curtain

The dinette or the stole

Such important choices

To satisfy the soul

Take it on down to the wishing well

Make a wish to stop your wishing

'Cause you just can't tell

Give it up

The power of suggestion

The tabloids and the tube

Muscles and money

Tits and gory

What's your story

Are we so unhappy

Being what we are

Sly told us a long time ago

Everybody is a star

Give it up
