Cloud Parade | Letters from the Sun | Track 08-15 | 1965

[Verse 1] Close the blinds, the day can wait, Dreams are walking through the gate. I can see the sky unwind, Painting thoughts I left behind. [Chorus] Float away on the cloud parade, Silver lines that never fade. Time dissolves, the world delayed — Drifting with the cloud parade. [Verse 2] Every sound feels slow and thin, I can hear my heartbeat spin. Every color softly sways, Like a film from better days. [Bridge – Dream Sequence] (Guitar reversed, airy tambourine hits, organ drone underneath.) “You can’t chase what’s made of air, But it follows you everywhere…” (Tape echo trails off into space before returning to final chorus.) [Final Chorus + Outro] Float away on the cloud parade, Silver lines that never fade. If you find the dream we made, Keep it in the cloud parade. (Ends with gentle reversed guitar chord and soft fade — as if the tape just ran out.)
