[00:16.28]Looking through some photographs I found inside a drawer
[00:23.34]I was taken by a photograph of you
[00:30.84]There were one or two I know that you would have liked a little more
[00:38.34]But they didn't show your spirit quite as true
[00:46.15]You were turning 'round to see who was behind you
[00:53.57]And I took your childish laughter by surprise
[01:00.24]And at the moment that my camera happened to find you
[01:09.06]There was just a trace of sorrow in your eyes
[01:14.31]
[01:16.76]Now the things that I remember seem so distant and so small
[01:24.15]Though it hasn't really been that long a time
[01:32.21]What I was seeing wasn't what was happening at all
[01:39.39]Although for a while our path did seem to climb
[01:47.14]When you see through love's illusions, there lies the danger
[01:54.50]And your perfect lover just looks like a perfect fool
[02:01.73]So you go running off in search of a perfect stranger
[02:09.98]While the loneliness seems to spring from your life
[02:13.99]Like a fountain from a pool
[02:17.18]
[02:19.20]Fountain of sorrow, fountain of light
[02:26.29]You've known that hollow sound of your own steps in flight
[02:33.57]You've had to hide sometimes, but now you're all right
[02:40.25]And it's good to see your smiling face tonight
[02:45.68]
[03:22.93]Now for you and me it may not be that hard to reach our dreams
[03:30.24]But that magic feeling never seems to last
[03:37.85]And all the future's there for anyone to change, still you know it seems
[03:45.40]It would be easier sometimes to change the past
[03:53.27]I'm just one or two years and a couple of changes behind you
[04:00.64]In my lessons at love's pain and heartache school
[04:07.90]Where if you feel too free and you need something to remind you
[04:16.03]There's this loneliness springing up from your life
[04:20.03]Like a fountain from a pool
[04:23.28]
[04:25.20]Fountain of sorrow, fountain of light
[04:32.51]You've known that hollow sound of your own steps in flight
[04:40.08]You've had to hide sometimes but now you're all right
[04:46.76]And it's good to see your smiling face tonight
[04:51.49]
[05:32.47]Fountain of sorrow, fountain of light
[05:39.75]You've known that hollow sound of your own steps in flight
[05:47.59]You've had to struggle, you've had to fight
[05:54.45]To keep understanding and compassion in sight
[06:03.22]You could be laughing at me, you've got the right
[06:10.79]But you go on smiling so clear and so bright
[06:20.95]
