[Dm] [C]
[Bb] [F]
[Dm] Looking through [C] some photographs [Bb] I found [F] inside the drawer
[Dm] I was taken by [C] a photograph of [Bb] you
[F]
[Dm] There were one or two I [C] know that you would [Bb] have liked a little [F] more
But [Dm] they didn't show [C] your spirit quite as [Bb] true
You [F]
[Am] were turning round to see who was [F] behind you
And [Gm] [Am] I took your childish laughter by [C] surprise
[A]
And at [Bb] the moment that my [C] camera happened [Dm] to find [Am] you
There [Dm]
[Gm] was just a [Bb] trace of sorrow [F] in your eyes
[Dm] Now the things that [C] I remember [Bb] seem so distant, so [F] small
[Dm] Though it hasn't [C] really been that long a [Bb] [F] time
[Dm] What I was [C] seeing wasn't what was [Bb] happening at [F] all
[Dm] Although for a while [C] our paths did seem [Bb] to climb
[F]
But [Am] when you see through love's illusions there [F] lies the danger
And [Am] your perfect lover just looks like a [C] perfect fool
[A] So you [Bb] go running off in search [C] of a perfect [Dm] stranger
[Gm] While the loneliness [F] seems [Bb] to spring from your life [F] like a [C] fountain from a [F] [C] pool
[F]
[Bb] [F] Fountain of sorrow, [Db] fountain [Dm] of
[Am] [Bb] life
You've known [F] that hollow sound [Db] of your own steps in [Dm] flight
[C] [Bb] You've had [F] to hide sometimes, [G] but now [A] you're [Dm] alright
[F] And it's good to see your [Bb] smile is free tonight

for [Dm] you and me [C] it may not [F] be [Bb] that hard to reach [F] our dreams
But [Dm] that magic [C] feeling never seems to [Bb] last
[F] And [Dm] while the future's [C] there for anyone [Fm] to [Bb] change
Still you [F] know it seems [Dm] it would be easier [C] sometimes to change [Bb] the past
[F]
[Am] I'm just one or two years and a couple of [F] changes behind
And [Am] my lessons add love's pain and [F] heartache [C] too
[Bb]
Where if you feel too free and you need [C] something [Dm] to remind you
[Gm] There's this loneliness [Bb] springing up from your life [F] like a fountain from a [C] pool
[F]
[Bb] Fountain [F] of sorrow, [Db] fountain [Dm] of [C] life
