Clouds - Lyrics by Go-Betweens


Lyrics
(
Robert Forester)
The Clouds are here they aren't up inthe sky. I cupped them with my handsand reached up high. I said to these
Clouds. "
No more am I blind I have tosee straight and that willmake me unkind."
Visions of blue I'm angry I'm wiseand you. You're under cloudy skies.
Blue air I crave blue air I breathethey once chopped my heart the way youchop a tree. Told to equate achievementwith pain I took their top prize and paidthem back with rain.
Visions of blue I'm angry I'm wiseand you. You're under cloudy skies.
Blue air I crave blue air I breathethey once chopped my heart the way youchop a tree. Told to equate Achievementwith Pain I stole their top prize and paidthem back with rain.
Visions of blue I'm angry I'm wiseand you. You're under cloudy skies
Visions of blue
Perverse and strong and you. You'reunder cloudy skies. What I did once
I now do everyday.
