ABOVE THE CLOUDS - Paul Weller



Autumn blew its leaves at me

Threatening winter as I walked

Summer always goes so quick

Barely stopping like my thoughts



Which dip and spin and change so fast

I have to wonder - Will I last



Through the windows of a train

I caught reflection of a paper cup

Hanging small in a pale blue sky

Never knowing which way's up



Above the clouds, what's to be found

I have to wonder - Will I be around



As my anger shouts - At my own self-doubt

So a sadness creeps - Into my dreams



When your scared of living - but afraid to die

I get scared of giving - and I must find the faith to beat it



I must be me that's rushing by

Time just lingers on the wind

Whistling through my open fears

I wonder what it's going to bring



Above the clouds - what's to be found

I have to wonder - oh, will I be around



Run and hide, run and hide - I catch the sail at the evening tide
