The church was packed with those who don't need to pray
Lonely clouds on a clear blue day
You're in a shop full of people whose money's proved no use
It's worthless now, but lies are better half thruths
And every sleepless night
Every burning day
You're gathering every thought
Guiding me on my way
Ooh, oh, oh,
Ooh, oh, oh oh,
Ooh, oh, oh, ooh, oh
I'm sure you're perched right in front of the bar
Which gathers the coins of all those near and far
And I'm sure you't stop the mood with what you'd say
Those lucky folks, a swamp placed sunny day
Yeah, and every sleepless night
Every burning day
You're gathering every thought
Guiding me on my way
Ooh, oh, oh,
Ooh, oh, oh oh
Ooh, oh, oh, ooh, oh
Our time on cloud 9
Was short in the extreme,
Shorter than it seems
Dance, oh, as grass grows,
We'll enter the next scene, wait for what life brings
Ooh, oh, oh oh
Yeah, and every sleepless night
Every burning day
You're gathering every thought
Guiding me on my way
Every sleepless night
Every burning day
You're gathering every thought
Guiding me on my way
Ooh, oh, oh,
Ooh, oh, oh oh
Ooh, oh, oh, ooh, oh
