Lyrics
[Verse 1]
On a bus to St. Cloud, Minnesota
I thought I saw you there
With the snow falling down around you
Like a silent prayer
[Verse 2]
And once, on a street in New York City
With the jazz and the sin in the air
And once, on a cold L.A. freeway
Going nowhere
[Chorus]
And it's strange but it's true
I was sure it was you
Just a face in the crowd
On a bus to St. Cloud
[Verse 3]
In a church in downtown New Orleans
I got down on my knees and prayed
And I wept in the arms of Jesus
For the choice you made
[Verse 4]
We were just getting to the good part
Just getting past the mystery
Oh, and it's just like you, it's just like you
To disagree
[Chorus]
And it's strange but it's true
You just slipped out of view
Like a face in the crowd
On a bus to St. Cloud
[Bridge]
And you chase me like a shadow
And you haunt me like a ghost
And I hate you some, and I love you some
But I miss you most
[Outro]
On a bus to St. Cloud, Minnesota
I thought I saw you there
With the snow falling down around you
Like a silent prayer
