Lyrics for My Cloud

And when the morning comes If there's been no rest for you We've been friends long enough You should know what to do If that's how you start your day Why keep running away When you could Come and join me on my cloud? And in the afternoon If things are still the same You've always held a key To effect a change What more need I say When you're running away from me And you could come and join me on my cloud How you must wonder in the evening How everything got so turned around Please don't let it get you down All you got to do is just Come and join me on my cloud And I've saved a special place Right here next to me And it's always been your space I'm sure that you will see You could always count on me To love you and let you be free So why not come and join me? You could come and join me You can come and join me On my cloud
