PJ HARVEY LYRICS - Fountain

"Fountain"



stand

under

fountain

cool skin

wash clean

wash him

from me

along comes wind

a big bone-shaker

blows off my clothes

completely naked

what to do

when everything

has left you?



out of the blue

it is he

a vision to me

bearing leaves

petals green

covers me

in all my shame

hand in hand

he's my big man

stays with me

some forty days

no words

then goes away

i cry again
