I dropped my penny in the well
That I had in my purse
I watched it hit the ground
Said what kind of wish is this
And I turned around
And left it there to drown
What can I believe
When I stay up this time around
Oh, this time around
I dropped my copper in the pond
And hoped it found someone
I pledge my allegiance
Oh, to a brick cascade
And I turned around
And left it there to drown
What can I believe
When I stay up this time around
Oh, this time around
And I didn't mean to let you down
And I can't keep these feet on solid ground
And I didn't mean to let you down
And I left all I had at the wishing well
Oh, at the wishing well
And I turned around
And left you there to drown
What can I believe
When I stay up
Oh, this time around
