[Verse 1]
Heartbroken at words spoken
I'm chokin', I can't breathe
I wandered for awhile until they found me
[Pre-Chorus]
They said, "A penny for a wish"
And swore that it was true
That if I ever made a wish
It would come true
[Chorus]
And so I threw a dime in the wishin' well for good measure
Boy, I was a fool to think that that would make things better
Pocket change can't make my wishes come true
So I'm stuck here, crying over you
Baby, I was told to wait and be patient
Spent so much time, I've run out, don't know where it went
Pocket change won't make you change your mind
But I'm still wishin' and throwin' in dimes
[Verse 2]
Torn up, scattered, our world shattered
So much chatter, I can't hear
All I want is to live my life
Without any fear
Pick up pieces, promise, keep them
And believe in, the truth
Baby put all of your faith
In something bigger than you
[Pre-Chorus]
They said, "A penny for a wish"
And swore that it was true
That if I ever made a wish
It would come true
[Chorus]
So I threw a dime in the wishin' well for good measure
Boy, I was a fool to think that that would make things better
Pocket change can't make my wishes come true
But I hope others are wishin' too
'Cause baby, I was told to wait and be patient
I've spent so much time, I've run out, don't know where it went
Pocket change can fix this world with some time
So I'm still wishin' and throwin' in dimes
[Bridge]
Coins in my pocket
Nothing in my wallet
I'd be fine with nothing else
But it's human for me to want it
I'm so tired of the same
All I want is a little change
[Chorus 3]
So I throw a dime in the wishin' well for good measure
Maybe I'm a fool to think that that will make things better
But pocket change can make my wishes come true
I'm hopin' others are wishin' too
'Cause baby, I was told to wait and be patient
I've spent so much time, I've run out, don't know where it went
Pocket change can fix this world with some time
So I'm still wishin' and throwin' in dimes
[Outro]
So I'm still wishin' and throwin' in dimes
