Lyrics:

Looking through some photographs I found inside a drawerI was taken by a photograph of youThere were one or two I know that you would have liked a little moreBut they didn''t show your spirit quite as trueYou were turning ''round to see who was behind youAnd I took your childish laughter by surpriseAnd at the moment that my camera happened to find youThere was just a trace of sorrow in your eyesNow the things that I remember seem so distant and so smallThough it hasn''t really been that long a timeWhat I was seeing wasn''t what was happening at allAlthough for a while, our path did seem to climbBut when you see through love''s illusions, there lies the dangerAnd your perfect lover just looks like a perfect foolSo you go running off in search of a perfect strangerWhile the loneliness seems to spring from your lifeLike a fountain from a poolFountain of sorrow, fountain of lightYou''ve known that hollow sound of your own steps in flightYou''ve had to hide sometimes, but now you''re all rightAnd it''s good to see your smiling face tonightNow for you and me it may not be that hard to reach our dreamsBut that magic feeling never seems to lastAnd while the future''s there for anyone to change, still you know it''s seemsIt would be easier sometimes to change the pastI''m just one or two years and a couple of changes behind youIn my lessons at love''s pain and heartache schoolWhere if you feel too free and you need something to remind youThere''s this loneliness springing up from your lifeLike a fountain from a poolFountain of sorrow, fountain of lightYou''ve known that hollow sound of your own steps in flightYou''ve had to hide sometimes but now you''re all rightAnd it''s good to see your smiling face tonightFountain of sorrow, fountain of lightYou''ve known that hollow sound of your own steps in flightYou''ve had to struggle, you''ve had to fightTo keep understanding and compassion in sightYou could be laughing at me, you''ve got the rightBut you go on smiling so clear and so bright
