Lyrics
Clouds
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You should never underestimate the power of
A kiss on the neck, when she doesn't expect
A kiss on the neck, when she doesn't expect
A kiss on the neck
And every time you catch her singin' in the shower
You should go and get her a flower
Don't matter what they what they are
Just rub her on the back, rub her on the back, rub her on the back
In this brand new age we do everything
Invest in our heart
All of our lives' a stage
Everybody stops, reality so blurry
If you scream out loud, loud
Top of your voice be higher than the crown (no)
Tattoo-less and proud, yeah
We'll get to something higher that doesn't require Clouds
No, we don't need no Clouds, no
You should never underestimate the power of
A kiss on the neck, when she doesn't expect
A kiss on the neck, when she doesn't expect
A kiss on the neck
And every time you catch her singin' in the shower
You should go and get her a flower
Don't matter what they what they are
Just rub her on the back, rub her on the back, rub her on the back
I'm gonna give you something baby
But I wonder does it really even matter if it ain't on the stage
If it ain't on a stage, but
I don't really think it matters in this brand new age
When life's a stage, in this brand new age
How do we engage?
Bullying just for fun
No wonder there's so many guns
Maybe we're better off in space!
"Mr Nelson, Mr Nelson, can you hear my voice?
Sir, we know you're a little bit groggy
And you're probably going to find it hard to speak
But don't try to talk or process too much now
We just want to let you know that the medication you were given
Has put you in a suspended animation for quite some time
Well, in fact about 45 years
But where you are now
Is the place that doesn't require time
That saying, you are completely safe
And we are here to help you
You should never underestimate the power of
A kiss on the neck, when she doesn't expect
A kiss on the neck, when she doesn't expect
A kiss on the neck!
It's in my power to love you
It's in my power to love you
It's in my power to love you
It's in my power to love you (hot ! hot!)
