Blackwater Fountain ft. Joshua Roberts Lyrics

My dad said the stars still glow on my ceiling

It's been too many years since I've seen them

I remember the magic in having the universe in my room

Soon I'll have been moved out longer than I stayed

In that small town 'neath the roof I was raised

How the years race by without a chance to rewind

I've been out searching for the fountain of youth

Just to find in its waters the remains of fools

Blackwater fountain

Where did the kids go?

Losing their halos

Windmills and mountains

Where did the kids go?

Losing their halos

Tied a string to my finger

To remind myself to breathe

When they say hard times don't last

is that cause death is a guarantee?

Now my childhood home sits quiet

On a back suburban street

Where I had an easier time smiling

When a kiss was a remedy

Blackwater fountain

Where did the kids go?

Losing their halos

Windmills and mountains

Where did the kids go?

Losing their halos

Our homes became houses

Our homes became houses

Our homes became houses, houses

Blackwater fountain

Where did the kids go?

Losing their halos
