Lyrics
Laughing
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.
I thought I met a man who said he knew a man
who knew what was going on
I was mistaken, only another stranger that I knew
And I thought that I found a light to guide me through the night
and all this darkness
I was mistaken, only reflections of a shadow that I saw
And I thought I´d seen someone who seemed
"at last" to know the truth
I was mistaken, only a child laughing in the sun, in the sun
