The Well lyrics
Song information
Artist: Tarnation Album: Gentle Creatures
Lyrics
I'm waiting, I wait, for the creaking of the gate How long, how long must I wait I sit, I sit, the weeds gather 'round me The wind whips my dress so that I cannot see So long, good-bye, to that great moaning sky and I'll cast my heart down the well I stare, I stare, and I'm looking over there 'Cross that ghostly lake where he dwelled I look and I see a light burnin' bright But I know it doesn't burn for me tonight So long, good-bye, to that great moaning sky and I'll cast my heart down the well Looking down, looking down, to where he once laid The birds hovered then took him away I rise to my feet and I walk down that road Where I silently cry when this story is told So long, good-bye, to that great moaning sky and I'll cast my heart down the well
