Fountain Of Sorrow - Jackson Browne (杰克逊·布朗)[00:00:00]
Written by:Jackson Bro[00:00:01]
Looking through some photographs I found inside a drawer[00:00:15]
I was taken by a photograph of you[00:00:22]
There were one or two I know that you would have liked a little more[00:00:30]
But they didn't show your spirit quite as true[00:00:38]
You were turning round to see who was behind you[00:00:45]
And I took your childish laughter by surprise[00:00:53]
And at the moment that my camera happened to find you[00:01:00]
There was just a trace of sorrow in your eyes[00:01:08]
Now the things that I remember seem so distant and so small[00:01:16]
Though it hasn't really been that long a time[00:01:23]
What I was seeing wasn't what was happening at all[00:01:31]
Although for a while our path did seem to climb[00:01:38]
But when you see through loves illusions there lies the danger[00:01:46]
And your perfect lover just looks like a perfect fool[00:01:54]
So you go running off in search of a perfect stranger[00:02:01]
While the loneliness seems to spring from your life[00:02:09]
Like a fountain from a pool[00:02:13]
Fountain of sorrow fountain of light[00:02:18]
You've known that hollow sound of your own steps in flight[00:02:25]
You've had to hide sometimes but now you're all right[00:02:33]
And its good to see your smiling face tonight[00:02:40]
Now for you and me it may not be that hard to reach our dreams[00:03:22]
But that magic feeling never seems to last[00:03:29]
And while the futures there for anyone to change still you know its seems[00:03:37]
It would be easier sometimes to change the past[00:03:44]
I'm just one or two years and a couple of changes behind you[00:03:52]
In my lessons at loves pain and heartache school[00:03:59]
Where if you feel too free and you need something to remind you[00:04:06]
There's this loneliness springing up from your life[00:04:15]
Like a fountain from a pool[00:04:18]
Fountain of sorrow fountain of light[00:04:23]
You've known that hollow sound of your own steps in flight[00:04:31]
You've had to hide sometimes but now you're all right[00:04:38]
And its good to see your smiling face tonight[00:04:45]
Fountain of sorrow fountain of light[00:05:31]
You've known that hollow sound of your own steps in flight[00:05:38]
You've had to struggle you've had to fight[00:05:46]
To keep understanding and compassion in sight[00:05:53]
You could be laughing at me you've got the right[00:06:01]
But you go on smiling so clear and so bright[00:06:09]
