Trees of green and golden Line the northern road Farming land your father once worked Is now all overgrown You were young and restless Growing up too fast With heartaches full of question inside But too afraid to ask You thought you could find yourself In someone else's soul But time has it's final take And finally takes it's toll But you can't change the water into stone You're only flesh and bone Your wishing well is welling up alone And love has a mind all of it's own Builder of a broken home Broken home Rusted wire fences Mark the county line All the dreams you thought were out there Were only in your mind Oh how you wish you knew A way to understand You held on so tight to love It shattered in your hand But you can't change the water into stone You're only flesh and bone Your wishing well is welling up alone And love has a mind all of it's own Builder of a broken home A broken home And life goes on No matter what you think You might have done nothing wrong Whoa, whoa You thought you could find yourself In someone else's soul But time has it's final take And finally takes it's toll And you can't change the water into stone You're only flesh and bone Your wishing well is welling up alone And love has a mind all of it's own Builder of a broken home You're only flesh and bone Your wishing well is welling up alone And love has a mind all of it's own A builder of a broken home Broken home Broken home Broken home
