The Fountain

Remember the fountain, it's spilling like words from my mouth And you hear me, but can't figure out What I mean by my metaphors, or when, why, or how We arrived at this place so far outside of town I know you see it, just like you did Out under the stars back when we were just kids The magic that moved us when we took a dip In the fountain, the water put stars on your lips And I felt you growing with every step that I'd take Your limbs were like leaves in the water that shiver and shake And I kissed you not knowing just how much was truly at stake It was as if I'd been sleeping and only then was I awake It is still calling us each day and night Through all the lovemaking and every fight There is more than we mortals can see with our eyes But the fountain will clean us and bring us new life And I felt you growing with every step that I'd take Your limbs were like leaves in the water that shiver and shake And I kissed you not knowing just how much was truly at stake It was as if I'd been sleeping and only then was I awake Remember the fountain? It's spilling like words from my mouth And you hear me, but can't figure out What I mean by my metaphors, or when, why, or how We arrived at this place so far outside of town
