"Laughing" lyrics

"Laughing"

I thought I met a man who said he knew a man
Who knew what was going on

I was mistaken, only another stranger that I knew

And I thought that I'd found the light
To guide me through my night and all its darkness

I was mistaken, only reflections of a shadow that I saw

And I thought I'd seen someone who seemed at last
To know the truth

I was mistaken, only a child laughing in the sun

Ahhh, in the sun
