1
When I was young, I knew a girl
2
Who wouldn't love god as a test
3
Or gamble with her happiness
4
And so led astray
5
So she did turn
6
Her father would say,
7
'You're only a guest of the master'
8
But passion was her sunday best
9
And she fell away
10
She fell away
11
She fell away
12
She fell away from the side of the lord
13
And she was free to do what she wanted
14
With clouds of her own
15
Na na na na
16
When she grew up, she fell in love
17
She thought it was all that she wanted
18
She knew how it felt to be haunted
19
And he ran away
20
Picked herself up
21
And said through her tears
22
Don't waste anymore of your time
23
You'll spend it all standing in line
24
They'll turn you away
25
She fell away
26
She fell away
27
She fell away from the side of the lord
28
And she was free to do what she wanted
29
With clouds of her own
30
Na na na na
31
Oh but superstition
32
And your heart's permission
33
'Cause you're good enough, good enough, good enough
34
To make it alone
35
Then when she died
36
She didn't ask god
37
To take her back into his graces
38
She'd taken on to many shapes
39
And too many were strange
40
And as they lay her in to the ground
41
Her spirits, they all flew all away
42
The sun shone so bright on that day
43
You thought it was spring
44
She fell away
45
She fell away
46
She fell away from the side of the lord
47
And she was free to do what she wanted
48
With clouds of her own
