,,  x3. ,
I  slept by mountains
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
Was  that all it cost?
I  followed the ocean
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
And  what i'd pay  to taste you kisses
 Oh yeah
Here  and now
Here  and now
Here  and now
D'you  hear me now?
Wash  me down
Wash  me down
Will  there be thunder?
Will  lightning strike?
Will  i kneel and wonder
In  a tunnel of light?
Will  i go under
And  give up the fight?
When  they call my number
Call  in the night
Call  in the night
I  cried the fountain dry
I  climbed the mountains high
 Halleluah, halleluah
 halleluah
