(C#, A, E) X2
C#m B A E
Looking through some photographs I found inside a book.
C#m B A E
I was taken by a photograph of you.
C#m B A E
There were one or two you that I know you would've liked a little more.
C#m B A E
But they didn't show your spirit quite as true.
B E
You were turning round to see who was behind you.
B E
And I took your childish laughter by surprise.
E C#m
And at the moment my camera happened to find you.
A -G# -F# E
There was just a trace of sorrow in your eyes.
C#m B A E
Now the things that I remember seem so distant and so small.
C#m B A E
Though it hasn't really been that long of time.
C#m B A E
What I was seeing wasn't what was happening at all.
C#m B A E
All though for a while our paths did seem to climb.
B E
And when you see though loves illusion there lies the danger.
B B/A B B/A
And your perfect lover just looks like a perfect fool.
E C#m
And you go running off in search of a perfect stranger.
A F#m (E) A
While the loneliness seems to spring from your life,
A -G# -F# E Esus4
Like a fountain from a pool.
Chorus1:
A B C/B C#m B
Fountain of sorrow, Fountain of life.
A B C/B C#m B
You've known that hollow sound of your own steps in flight.
A B C/B C#m B
You've had to hide sometimes and now you're all right.
E A -G# -F# E Esus4 (X2)
And it's good to see your smiling face tonight.

(Interlude1: C#m,B,A,E) x2
C#m B A E
Now for you and me it couldn't be that had to reach our dreams.
C#m B A E
But that magic feeling never seems to last.
C#m B A E
Well the future's there for anyone to change, but still you know it seems,
C#m B A E
It would be easier sometimes to change the past.
B E
I'm just one or two year and couple of changes behind you.
B E
In my lessons love that's pain and heartaches good
E C#m
Well if you feel to free and you need something to remind you.
A F#m (E) A
There's this loneliness bringing in from your life,
A -G# -F# E Esus4
Like a fountain from a pool.

Chorus2:
A B C/B C#m B
Fountain of sorrow, Fountain of life.
A B C/B C#m B
You've known that hollow sound of your own steps in flight.
A B C/B C#m B
You've had to struggle, you've had to fight.
A B C/B C#m B
To keep understanding and compassion in sight.
A B C/B C#m B
You could be laughing at me, you've got the right.
A B C/B C#m B
But you go on smiling, so clear and so bright.
