Danny, Dakota & the Wishing Well

Lyrics

In life we'll wish for a waterfall, in love we'll wait, we'll wait
 You could walk away from the water, you could run away...
 ♪
 You could start again with another,
 but there's a setting sun where you once found you were in love
 ♪
 Danny met Dakota looking deep into the wishing well
 Danny couldn't write so Dakota taught him how to spell
 Dakota told Danny she was falling in love
 But Danny couldn't speak when Dakota grew up
 ♪
 Dakota spent the summer chasing boys and smoking cigarettes
 Her first tattoo was a violet on the back of her neck
 Dakota left school when she moved down south
 She never knew why Danny wouldn't open his mouth
 and so she, she ran away from the wishing well
 ♪
 Danny got a job and he kept every promise he made
 ♪
 Dakota got married, let the memories slip away
 Danny never wrote though he often cried
 Dakota missed Danny but she didn't know why
 Dakota found her husband in a hotel with her very best friend
 She tried to make it work but she couldn't trust him again
 Dakota moved back to the wishing well
 But she never told Danny because she couldn't tell
 If he still held a flame for the love that Dakota stole when
 she ran away from the wishing well
 ♪
 Go back, go back to the wishing well
 ♪
 Months went by Dakota learned where Danny could be found
 Once a year he waited by a deep stone hole in the ground
 Dakota found Danny where they first had met
 She took his hand and she told her friend
 Don't let me run away again from the love we found
 When we met looking deep into the wishing well
