Clouds

See the clouds adrift so far below
Ever changing as they come and go
Makes me wonder why I’m up so high
When really I am down so low

Of all the wonders I was one allowed
I think that I would always choose a cloud,
Always bring my feelings right out loud,
Whether I’m ashamed or proud.

And on this airplane coming home to you,
Sometimes I think I’ve flown my whole life through,
My whole life through,
As I wing my way to you.

See the clouds, they’re giving life below
In colors that the canvass cannot show
Keeping secrets no one else could know,
For I’m the one who told them so.

Now and then I get up close to you,
Like to stay, but I’m just passing through,
So I’ll have to say goodbye,
Until next time I fly.
