Spirit Touches Ground

歌詞

A woman in a straw hat Went into a store She walked up to the counter And said she needed more He didn't understand her He pulled his curtain down And said, “This is what happens When Spirit touches Ground.” She left in such a hurry she didn't take her hat A boy said, “Don't you worry, cause you'll have no need for that.” The sun went in a cloud It covered up the town And said, “This is what happens When Spirit touches Ground.” When it touches ground, ground Well the truth is found When the lights come on When it touches ground, ground Well the truth is found When spirit touches ground She pressed her lips together To keep the words inside She saw a thousand faces And their thoughts were amplified A mother's boy was smiling Painted like a clown He said, “This is what happens When Spirit touches ground.” When it touches ground, ground When the truth is found And the lights come on When it touches ground, ground Well the truth is found When spirit touches ground She got back to the city Looked in an old dog's eyes They were gray from seeing But he was still inside Said, “I know what you're thinking, Your friends might let you down Sometimes this is what happens When you get turned around But you don't want to leave us now She got home it was evening The telephone was shot The television broken and the clocks had all just stopped In the silence she heard singing The whole world said it now They said, “This is what happens When Spirit touches ground” (CHORUS)
