The Jayhawks - Clouds lyrics

God of the rich man ain't the God for the poor

Autumn ending the state hospital's closed

Then wouldn't you know

Winos and office girls in the park

Wanted you alone to walk beside her

Wanted you alone to live beside her

It was mornin'

Better roads with light on them

Can your diamonds talk to you

Can you see them shine

Keep them hiding in your room

Can they guide you in your time

Can they guide you in your time

Windows were broken by your dear one's hands

Gates left swinging by your dear one's hands

An old book salesman asked if he could step in

The sidewalks you slept on held no rest

Gave away the money you saved in your trust

You're sorry now

Light hits you funny at the time

Can your diamonds talk to you

Can you see them shine

Keep them hiding in your room

Can they guide you in your time

Can they guide you in your time

The sidewalks you slept on

They're so broken, they're so broken down

I'll meet you there

I'll meet you there

Years before when the trees would start to bloom

You walked outside, wanted back in your room

What did you hope for

Turn the corner while you slept

God of the rich man ain't the God for the poor

Autumn ending the state hospital is closed

And wouldn't you know

Winos and office girls in the park

Can your diamonds talk to you

Can you see them shine

Keep them hiding in your room

Can they guide you in your time

Can they guide you in your time

Can your diamonds talk to you

Can you see them shine

Keep them hiding in your room

Can they guide you in your time

Can they guide you in your time
