Well

Beyond Oxford’s towers, beyond the bells Past meadow mist there flows a well Where waters hold stories under stones And broken hearts come home I crossed by river, song and dream Thames had carried my spirit there Though feet stayed here my spirit swelled Kneeling softly at the well Water remembers what time concealed What asks with love is gently healed Well… ancient well Ancient well Lift the body break the spell Clear her vision bless her sight Guide my left leg back to light Well… sacred well Where the hidden magic dwells From the deep new strength will swell I heal again beside the well They say the blind once broke the spell They say the weak walked home well They say compassion touched the land And spring came forth from unseen well When one can heal, then many may When one heart turns, it lights the way Wonder grows where kindness swells Circles widening from the well Heal the mothers, heal the bones Heal the people left alone Heal the rivers heal with rain Teach the earth to bloom where pain fell Heal the eye and heal the stride Heal the grief we learn to hide Every tear and every cell Returns to health inside our well Well… ancient well Ancient well Every living current tells What is loved can heal and regenerate Whole again beside our well Living Well Healing Well Well Well Well I am well I am well You are well You are well Ancient well Ancient well Will heal again
