WATCHING THE CLOUDS
|
|
|
|
|
|
people always ask me who I am
|
|
and I tell them I'm not a prophet of Uncle Sam
|
|
they never guessed I was, never thought such
|
|
but don't you dream? - oh, not very much
|
|
for if I dreamt of all I didn't possess
|
|
then what I would really have would be less
|
|
|
|
well, can you direct us the way out
|
|
I cannot, I say, even though I need not shout
|
|
well, can you speak a few words of wisdom
|
|
I say I shouldn't, for that minister will someday come
|
|
they walk away, in a trance of solemn despair, from here
|
|
oh sad souls, why did you come to me with your fear
|
|
|
|
for I'm just watching the clouds go by
|
|
hoping that rain will fall from the sky
|
|
and maybe tomorrow a new group will approach me
|
|
but I still won't be able to set them free
|
|
|
|
I couldn't let them go without at least some preaching
|
|
I told them that to get ahead you must grab instead of reaching
|
|
they seemed to understand, but how can one be sure
|
|
and a sweet young girl asked me if heaven was pure
|
|
I said, my dear, I am not one to predict the Fate of the dead
|
|
she seemed satisfied, as they all did, at what I had said
|
|
|
|
but I'm just watching the clouds go by
|
|
hoping that rain will fall from the sky
|
|
and maybe tomorrow a new group will approach me
|
|
yet I still won't be able to set them free
