Clouds Lyrics

    Clouds (w:m micah redding)

    A long time ago, a nation very far away
    Young men stood on a hillside, dreaming of another day
    They never knew what this would lead to, all these visions, all these things
    All they knew was that they'd never lose the power of the dream

    And now a thousand years later, and a million miles since
    You can still hear them coming, hear their voices in the wind, they're singing
    A million different cities where the people cried aloud
    You could hear the changes coming in the clouds

    [It came in the clouds that day
    Blowing open heaven's gates
    Coming in on the winds of change
    The day it all came down
    That day was filled with clouds]

    They saw a new heaven and earth, a new birth, new universe, born right here on the earth
    They knew that if this was to happen everything would have to change
    They'd bring the revolution and the day

    [chorus]

    The change they knew was coming never took them by surprise
    But lifted them unspoken with the winds into the skies
    And now you can hear their voices, all eternity they cry
    Immortal they're a beacon in the sky

    [chorus]
