Song Description

A woman lounges on a grassy hillside staring up at the sky, seeing reminders of a lost love drifting past in the shapes of passing clouds.

Lyrics

CLOUDY MEMORIES
(Steve Multer, Karen Multer - 2003)

Lyin' on my back with the grass beneath my head
I remember every gentle word you ever said
Your face fills my thoughts through every hour of the day
I watch the clouds roll past and dream the afternoon away

There you are laughing by the trolley car
I see your smile on a sunny tropic isle
Gee you look swell waving from that carousel
Where are you drifting my love

Your sweet eyes shame the palace of Versailles
Could it be you in that forest of bamboo
I must intone I could eat you like an ice cream cone
Where are you drifting my love

Tell me why I wander in a mist of compromise
Was our romance squandered like a nimbus on the rise
No one would hear us embracing in a smoky cirrus
Maybe the stratus would have had us wed
What's to discuss, I wish we two were cumulus
Where are you drifting my love

Oh tell me why I wander in a mist of compromise
Was our romance squandered like a nimbus on the rise
No one would hear us embracing in a smoky cirrus
Maybe the stratus would have had us wed
What's to discuss, I wish we two were cumulus
Where are you?
Where are you drifting my love, my love
