Living On a Cloud
Living on a cloud
flying high in the sky
feeling the raindrops as they fall
rinsing away your troubles
living on a cloud
sleeping on air
the sun in your face
seeing the world go on below you
living on a cloud
making friends with the birds
yet none of them understand
why you are up here
when you should be down there
living on a cloud
alone and frightend
looking for someone
to share secrets with
living on a cloud
the thunder becoming
your only music
but it brings joy to your ears
living on a cloud
the lightning becoming
your only light
but it brings happy tears to your eyes
living on a cloud
content yet not happy
living up here
and wishing you were down there.
