On A Bus To St. Cloud Lyrics - The Essential Gretchen Peters - Gretchen Peters

On a bus to St. Cloud, Minnesota 

I thought I saw you there 

With the snow falling down around you 

Like a silent prayer 

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 

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 

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 

We were just gettin' to the good part 

Just gettin' past the mystery 

Oh, and it's just like you, just like you 

To disagree 

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 

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... 

On a bus to St. Cloud, Minnesota 

I thought I saw you there 

With the snow falling down around you 

Like a silent prayer
