Notes About The Poem
I performed this song at an open-mic in Monterey CA 20150218.
Sitting On a Cloud
Sitting on a cloud, high above the ground,
High among the highways and the byways in the sky.
People on the hills, going where they will,
Seem like specks beneath us as we watch the world go by.
You and I in a giant red balloon, sailing across the sky.
Heaven must be like this moment in the blue, shared between you and I
Soaring like a hawk, where the eagles walk.
With a burst of fire we climb higher in the air.
Dancing on a breeze, high above the trees,
Following the currents that could take us anywhere.
You and I in a giant red balloon, sailing across the sky.
Heaven must be like this moment shared with you, here ‘neath a clear blue sky.
So pop the cork, and toast our new-found love, here in our red balloon.
So pop the cork, and toast our new-found love, here in our red balloon.
On our way we go, enjoying what’s below.
From our picnic basket we’ll pull out the caviar.
Now the moments gone, but we’ll carry on,
Floating past the sunset on our pathway to the stars.
You and I in a giant red balloon, sailing across the sky.
Heaven must be like this moment in the blue, shared between you and I
Heaven must be like this moment shared with you, here ‘neath a clear blue sky.
