Above the Clouds
Atop the mountains where thin clouds float
Covering the peaks in a misty veil
The eagle's eye takes careful notes
As above the clouds it sails
Above the trees where a brisk wind blows
Whispering through the leaves to the cawing crows
Echoing over the hilltops as the wind stream flows
And above the clouds where sunbeams glow
Up on high in starry skies
Where clouds obscure the moon
A lone wolf howls a mournful tune
As crickets yearn to croon
On peaceful nights when stars shine bright
And the sandman travels on moonbeams
It's then it seems, we'll take slumber's flight
As above the clouds we dream
