I wake before the morning light,
Above a world so still and bright.
I stretch into the glowing sky,
And drift where silent winds pass by.
I glide across the land so wide,
And watch the winding rivers guide.
No road to walk, no path to see,
Just open sky surrounding me.
(Chorus)
I’m Calvin drifting through the sky,
No chains or weight to pull me high.
I float where endless breezes sound,
And never need the solid ground.
I pass above the fields so wide,
And watch the trees and hills divide.
I cast a shadow soft and slow,
On quiet earth that rests below.
By noon I gather thick and gray,
And let my distant thunder play.
I send my cooling rain to ground,
To feed the fields without a sound.
(Chorus)
I’m Calvin drifting through the sky,
No chains or weight to pull me high.
I float where endless breezes sound,
And never need the solid ground.
The sunset paints me red and gold,
My edges glow, then lose their hold.
The fading light slips from my view,
As night begins to darken through.
(Bridge)
I never stay, I never rest,
No single shape can suit me best.
I rise and fall, I stretch and bend,
Then form anew and start again.
No roots to keep me in one place,
I wander through the open space.
No past to hold, no path to see,
The sky alone is home to me.
(Final Chorus)
When dusk gives way to quiet night,
I fade beneath the silver light.
The stars shine through where I once lay,
As I grow thin and drift away.
From dawn I drift on open air,
No path to follow anywhere.
A cloud by day, by night set free,
I’m Calvin the Cloud, just being me.
When dusk gives way to quiet night,
I fade beneath the silver light.
The stars shine through where I once lay,
As I grow thin and drift away.
From dawn I drift on open air,
No path to follow anywhere.
A cloud by day, by night set free,
I’m Calvin the Cloud, just being me.
(Spoken words)
"I’m Calvin the Cloud, just being me."
