What made you think?
You could compete with that
Your cheap guitar
And your worn out hat
Your boyish lust
And your manly smell
It was a foolish thought
An impossible sell

So much has passed the well tonight
Her emerald smile and her lava light
Her electric glow in the evening air
She's a precious vase beyond compare
So much has passed the well tonight
The ageless child with her dress so tight
The baited hook with its sharpened claw
So much has passed the well that never gets through the wall

What made you think you could own that heart
Your broken verse that always falls apart
Your shallow demeanor with it's costly haze
Enough desire
Look your world's ablaze

So much has passed the well tonight
Her emerald smile and her lava light
Her electric glow in the evening air
She's a precious vase beyond compare
So much has passed the well tonight
The ageless child with her dress so tight
The baited hook with its sharpened claw
So much has passed the well that never gets through the wall

What made you think you could win this game
With your barefoot style and your eyebrows lame
With your dimpled grin your moistened lips
Watching love slip off your fingertips

So much has passed the well tonight
Her emerald smile and her lava light
Her electric glow in the evening air
She's a precious vase beyond compare
So much has passed the well tonight
An ageless child with her dress so tight
The baited hook with its sharpened claw
So much has passed the well that never gets through the wall

What made you think?
You could compete with that
Your cheap guitar
And your worn out hat
Your boyish lust
And your manly smell
It was a foolish thought
An impossible sell

So much has passed the well tonight
Her emerald smile and her lava light
Her electric glow in the evening air
She's a precious vase beyond compare
So much has passed the well tonight
The ageless child with her dress so tight
The baited hook with its sharpened claw
So much has passed the well that never gets through the wall
It never gets through the wall
So much has passed the well
So very much has passed the well
