It was September, the leaves were gold

That's when our hearts knew that story untold

We were young lovers, strolling near

The fountain of love, founttain of love



Do you remember, I held you so near

Our love's glowing ember so precious and dear

We were young lovers, strolling near

The fountain of love, the fountain of love

Fountain of love, fountain of love



We made a wish and threw in a coin

And since that day our hearts have been joined

So all you young lovers, wherever you are

The fountain of love is not very far

We'll go on dreaming of that golden day

And remember the fountain is not far away



We were young lovers strolling near

The fountain of love, fountain of love

Fountain of love, fountain of love



(spoken)

We made a wish and threw in a coin

And since that day, our hearts have been joined

So all you young lovers wherever you are

The fountain of love is not very far

Fountain of love, oooo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo

Fountain of love, oooo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo

Fountain of love, oooo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo

Fountain of love, oooo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
