But darling, I w^Eish you well ^A ^E On your way to the wi^Bshing well Swinging off of those ga^Ates of hell But I can t^Bell how hard you're t^Erying ^A ^E Just have that se^Ecret hope sometimes all we d^Bo is cope Somewhere on the st^Aeepest slope There'll be an en^Bdless rope and nobody cr^Eying. ^A ^E
