The Clouds Are Moving

If my eyes aren’t deceiving
It seems the clouds are moving
I wish they would stay
I could talk with them all day
But they are drifting away
And nobody else is arriving

‘Tis not a day to be spent alone
Air is filled with pages thrown
Flying away, flying thin
The cold winds burn my skin
But they know where to begin
They have already passed my bones

It’s not like I’m not trying to
But there is something about you
Which makes my heart leap
And know just how to keep
My heart from falling asleep
And I dream about you until two

Across town, I wander
Hoping lightning would strike and thunder
Would bring down rain
And I’d hide my pain
As I try in vain
To do anything but surrender

If my eyes aren’t deceiving
It seems the clouds are moving
I wish they would stay
I could talk with them all day
But they are drifting away
And nobody else is arriving
