[Verse 1]
Well, I met you in a chapel
Where the preacher man said to me
Son you're getting kind of close
To the end of your one way street
At the bottom of the barrel
There's a con man's guarantee
If you talk enough sense
You can wind up on bending knee

[Refrain]
I wish you well
I wish you well
I wish you well
I wish you well

[Chorus]
I would wait until the fires of hell are frozen
I would sink into the bottom of the sea
Just to hold you in my arms for one more moment
I would take back all the things that made you lеave

[Verse 2]
So I take you like a drug
And my feelings gеt the best of me
But I wake up in the morning like a begger
On a bending knee
You're a thief in the night
I'm the prize you'll never keep
Just another stop when you ride down a one way street
[Refrain]
I wish you well
I wish you well
I wish you well
I wish you well

[Chorus]
I would wait until the fires of hell are frozen
I would sink into the bottom of the sea
Just to hold you in my arms for one more moment
I would take back all the things that made you leave

[Outro}
I would wait until the fires of hell are frozen
I would sink into the bottom of the sea
Just to hold you in my arms for one more moment
I would take back all the things that made you leave
