Just to see what was on the other end
I looked up, it was a little cloud
And every drop, as it fell, it smiled
I said, "Hey, I like you little cloud
Now don't let me catch you down here again
Float with me to distant lands, wondrous and fair
And float with me to distant lands, wondrous and fair
You know you should be floating up above
To cry and weep and tear its hair and all
And don't matter how hard I try
"You making some, kind of a joke?", said the cloud
To see if you could give me some kind of love
Red, green, blue and golden
Happy rain come falling down
"Now can't you see I'm wearing such a pretty dress?
And as my cloud rolled out of view
You see I'm just a happy little cloud
I laugh and the float and the sing my song
I told you so many times before
You see I am the prettiest little chick cloud
But the other clouds don't like me none
From which a gold string was dangling
And, throwing back its head, began singing
I heard above me a trembling
You just don't seem at all to care
Just then a voice came down to me and says
You are a nice little fellow, yes"
That you'd find anywhere up above
I can't get the first little tear to fall
Float with me to distant lands wondrous and fair
And says, "Hey, girl, now what you think you're doing there?
Lying awake, late the other night
I just dropped in on you awhile
Float with me to distant lands, wondrous and fair
You know, I gave the string a little pull
And float with me to distant lands, wondrous and fair
There come falling down a gentle shower of rain
They say, I am behaving so very wrong
Just then the chief cloud come into view
"Hey, now, don't you want to be my friend"
Oh, float with me to distant lands, wondrous and fair
You see a cloud's supposed to be sad
Oh float with me to distant lands, wondrous and fair
