Cloud on a String Verse 1 I found the sunset wearing gold, Sitting where the silence grows. Then a little stranger crossed my way, Holding something no one knows. An empty hand, a fearless smile, Like morning dressed in evening light. He carried more than eyes could see... A little miracle in sight. Pre-Chorus I asked, "What treasure do you hide?" He laughed as if the sky replied. Chorus "I'm holding a cloud on a string, Teaching the wind where to sing. It follows wherever I roam, 'Cause every dream deserves a home. If you believe, you'll see it too, The sky remembers hearts like you. Don't grow so old you lose your wings... Come hold a cloud on a string." Verse 2 He walked away through painted air, Leaving wonder in his trace. Then one white cloud broke from the blue, As if it knew his little face. Maybe heaven loves pretend, Maybe truth wears child's disguise. Maybe faith begins the day We trust the stories in young eyes. Bridge The world keeps counting what is real, Numbers, clocks and walls of stone. Children measure life by stars, And never have to walk alone. Perhaps the strongest hands on Earth Are those that hold what can't be seen. Invisible... but somehow still The truest thing there's ever been. Final Chorus Now I'm holding a cloud on a string, Laughing like the first day of spring. No one else can see my sky, Still I watch it floating by. Some call it hope, some call it dreams, Some call it sunlight through the seams. Whatever name tomorrow brings... I'll keep my cloud upon its string. Outro When life becomes too hard to bear, And every road feels cold and long... Look for the child inside your heart— He's still leading a cloud along.
