Our Lady of the Well Lyrics

Cover art for Our Lady of the Well lyrics by Jackson Browne

Yeah, always thought of the story of someone leaving his home and family to live with his woman far away, reaching inner peace but still missing what he left behind. But I still don't catch the title/well/water thing...

BTW, I love the "where your children will be born/ You'll watch them as they run" lines. JB's got this unique quality to make everyone's life's ordinary events look like something epic!
