Peter Elkas - My Well Runs Deeper lyrics

I have known some girls All along my short lived way I even called some love Then it hit me on the head one day Love is like a well It could only ever run so deep And anybody with two eyes could tell That mine was dry and then they'd always say to me My well just runs deeper than yours My well just runs deeper than yours I can tell that the feeling is forced And my well just runs deeper than yours I ran along with that in mind And I swore that I would be more kind And listen to the quiet flow Of the waters in the pool below Cause it's tough to say you got a dried up spring But I didn't think that I could bear to hear them sing My well just runs deeper than yours My well just runs deeper than yours I can tell that the feeling is forced And my well just runs deeper than yours You came along just a sweet young thing And I never ever thought it would be more than just a fling Who would have thought that the well inside Would grow much stronger than an ocean's tide My well just runs deeper than yours My well just runs deeper than yours I can tell that the feeling is forced And my well just runs deeper than yours I see it every time you sigh Wishing yours had not run dry And you're trying to believe that it grows a million leagues My well just runs deeper than yours My well just runs deeper than yours I can tell that the feeling is forced And my well just runs deeper than yours
