Wish In This World

One little gutter town 3:00 in the morning
I whispered these words I believed
Said leave me alone girl
I'm so tied down and broken
It's too late it's too late to save me
Ain't no wish in this world slight of this moment
No dream I could dream that comes near
No heaven or hope that comes near
No wish in this world except you right here
It's cold and it's dark and I'm sure it makes you crazy
Runnin' to grass so green
Dangerous road but it's not going to change me
Paved with 10 million broken dreams
Chorus
Sometimes I feel it's the end of the ride
Like distant water the well keeps running dry
Chorus
And you right here
And you right here...
