Lyrics Echo & the Bunnymen

Echo & the Bunnymen

The Fountain

I slept by the mountain

Of rivers we crossed

I dreamt of the fountain

And the coin that we tossed

Now I'm just counting

The dreams that were lost

One coin in a fountain

Was all that it cost

Is that all it cost?

I followed the oceans

I swallowed the seas

I buried emotions

I couldn't set free

I took every potion

From A to me

And that was devotion

Was that really me?

Is that really me?

What a way to waste your wishes

Changing something for somehow

What I'd pay to taste your kisses

oh yeah

Here and now, here and now,

here and now, D'you hear me now

Will there be thunder?

Will lightning strike?

Will I kneel in wonder

In a tunnel of light?

Or will I go under?

And give up the fight

When they call my number

Called in the night

Call in the night

I cried the fountain dry

I climbed the mountains high

Hallelujah... hallelujah...

Hallelujah... hallelujah... hallelujah...

Hallelujah... hallelujah... hallelujah...

I got to you... hallelujah... hallelujah...

I got to you... hallelujah... hallelujah...
