Proof Lyrics

Lyric discussion by GrungyBeatle 

Cover art for Proof lyrics by Paul Simon

the song is about a wedded couple that promised each other to have loads of $$$ but the "proof" wasn't there?! the dude never made it! so her smile became soft it slipped away from being genuine. how sad the song.

But he gets rich! his cheques dont matter anymore its a everyday thing, his race or whatever is not cared about anymore. There was his wife's folly. His proof came to pass.

"Half moon hiding in the clouds, my darling And the sky is flecked with signs of hope Raise your weary wings against the rain, my baby Wash your tangled curls with gambler's soap"

half assed wife (moon symbol) hiding in dreams sounded like his darling. and his dreams is around her w/ signs of hope . now he's giving her the boot "go fly away with your weary wings against my rain" yeah so whose the man now?! "and go wash your messy hair that hair that cheated on me some cheap man's gambling money"

HE DIVORCES HER BLACK WIDOW ASS. Beware of those women who love for status pursue girls who love you for you! wait guys..and girls.
