lyrics

THE FOUNTAIN

It was early one evening
When I met the fountain
Though told of its legend
It hardly seemed real
Its crystal blue waters
Ran deep in the mountain
With songs born of love
Even the darkest could feel

I was out on the road
In the chill of December
Clouded in smoke
With a blistering cup
When a light in the mind
That began as an ember
Enlightened the path
That swallowed me up

Now it’s a crowded old highway
With nobody on it
Not lost in a story
That long ago died
Cold mirrored eyes
All hollow and haunted
Running from nowhere
With nowhere to hide
Running from nowhere
With nowhere to hide

Summers gone
The leaves are fallin’
There’s nothing to lose
There’s nothing to fear
From out of the fog
I hear a voice callin’
You’re where you belong
You were never not here

Yeah, I remember the evening
When I met the fountain
Though told of its legend
It seemed so unreal
I drank from the waters
And climbed up the mountain
Filled with a love
Only love can reveal
Filled with a love
Only love can reveal
