Little Cloud (2010 Remaster) - The Incredible String Band

作词：Mike Heron

作曲：Mike Heron

How sweet to be a cloud floating in the blue

Lying awake late the other night

Heard above me a trembling

I looked up it was a little cloud

From which a gold string was dangling

You know I gave the string a little pull

Just to see what was on the other end

Just then a voice came down to me says

Hey now don't you want to be my friend

And float with me to distant lands

Wondrous and fair

Float with me to distant lands wondrous and fair

You see I'm just a happy little cloud

I laugh and float and sing my song

But the other clouds don't like me none

They say I am behaving very wrong

You see a cloud's supposed to be sad

To cry and weep and tear its hair and all

And don't matter how hard I try

I can't get the first little tear to fall

And float with me to distant lands wondrous and fair

Float with me to distant lands wondrous and fair

I said Hey I like you little cloud

You are a nice little fellow yes

You making some kind of a joke said the cloud

Now can't you see I'm wearing such a pretty dress

You see I am the prettiest little chick cloud

That you'd find anywhere up above

I just dropped in on you awhile

To see if you could give me some kind of love

And float with me to distant lands wondrous and fair

Float with me to distant lands wondrous and fair

Just then the chief cloud come into view

And says Hey girl now what you think you're doing there

I told you so many times before

You just don't seem at all to care

You know you should be floating up above now

Don't let me catch you down here again

And as my cloud pulled out of view

There come failing down a gentle shower of rain

Happy rain come failing down

Red green blue and golden

And every drop as it fell it smiled

And throwing back its head began singing

Oh float with me to distant lands wondrous and fair

Float with me to distant lands wondrous and fair
