Clouds (adapted from nuages)

See the white and fluffy clouds
Adore the sun
As he shines his light
On each and every one
Still, those clouds can hide his light
Till the day becomes like night
So my light heart would darken too
If I ever lost you
As the clouds begin to shed
Their tears of rain
So my aching heart would
Shed its tears of pain
Till that happy moment when
Darkened clouds roll by and then
White and fluffy clouds Adore the sun once againCheryl's Solo:When I was youngI'd long to touch a cloud
On my back on a bed of greenI'd contemplate the cloud scene
They would form themselves into a lot o' different kinds o' pictures Of the kind that pre-existed in my mindPaintin' the kind o' scene
That I never saw on a wide screen
Look! Ain't that Moses on the mount!
There! Monte Christo an' a gallant count!
Four white horses and a coach
Proceeding madly to approachthe sunlit castle of his majesty the kingIsn't that a flying saucerand a pilgrim out of Chaucer going by'They're all right there in a cloud Standing tall and proud
How thrilling to see!
A panorama that will never endlike the movies do"
Cause they're yours alonean' under your directionHow'd y'like the moviethat was showin' t'day?An' what a cast!An' not only the castingbut a story full of glory everlastingthe errant, fluffy cloudsdoing everything they have always done
Like adore the sun
Come out an' do their thing again
Stephane Grappelli/Stochelo Rosenberg SoloSee the white, fluffy clouds adore the sun
As he shines his light on each and every one
White and fluffy clouds adore the sun
Once again.
