Analysis of Our Well Never Dry



We share the same silence
we think the same thoughts

We have the same daydreams
not rented or bought

We live in the spaces
of a lost inbetween

And wander through moments
that time hasn’t seen

We care for each other
we live for today

We treasure the quiet
of nothing to say

We give without taking
our well never dry

And smile ever meeting
—never saying goodbye
