Lyrics
The Cloud Prayer
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You don't think that I tried for you? I went into disguise for you.
So, of course, almost no one knew.
You don't think there was payment due? I blew up in the sky for you.
Anyone who saw it knew.
But did you, didn't you ever wonder,
Maybe if you were under your own spell?
Thinking it was all she wrote, thinking it was all she wrote,
Thinking it was all the words ever written.
So, of course, almost no one knew x 2
