Woman at the Well Lyrics
All the answers, all the gold
There was a guy back then
She forgot that he was told
She was a fountain then
Entire, inspired, down to the fast wire
She made a fountain then
In fire, in fire, down to the last wire
She was a fountain then
He has her hand
He has her hand
What are your plans
Wonderful child?
Water your well again
She supposes he is wet
She was a fountain then
She would owe her clothes and head
She lit a lantern then
Entire, inspired, down to the fast wire
She made a fountain then
In fire, in fire, down to the last wire
She was a fountain then
Entire, inspired, down to the fast wire
She made a fountain then
In fire, in fire, down to the last wire
She was a fountain then
There was a guy back then
She was a fountain then
She made a fountain then
In fire, in fire, down to the last wire
She was a fountain then
He has her hand
Wonderful child?
Water your well again
She was a fountain then
She lit a lantern then
She made a fountain then
In fire, in fire, down to the last wire
She was a fountain then
She made a fountain then
In fire, in fire, down to the last wire
She was a fountain then

Instead of "He was her friend", it sounds more like "he has her hand" and also during that section there are lyrics saying something like: "What are your plans Wonderful child Water your ____ again"
Sufjan's incredibly hard to transcribe by ear - if anyone has any corrections to these lyrics, please let me know.
also instead of "she let it move her then" it sounds like "she lit a lantern then"
I think instead of "She would owe her clothes and head" it sounds like "she would owe her clothes and bed" OR "she put all her clothes in bed"... not sure which, but I think it's "bed," not "head."
Thanks for this!
