Under a Cloud Songtext
von The Bangles

It′s August again and I'm on my own
I′m under a cloud and I'm staying home
The telephone rings and I am hiding-out
Rituals carved on a well-worn path
It's up with people but I′m failing that class
So many reasons to smile but I′m happy to doubt

I'm under a cloud and no-one knows
Under a cloud while beauty unfolds like a rose


I′ve been down so long I've got a fear of heights
My mind keeps telling-me that something′s not right
So I walk in the sun in my rain hat and overcoat
It makes no sense and it's so surreal
Despite what you see I fear what I feel
And I′m bailing out water from this lush lifeboat

I'm under a cloud and no-one knows
Under a cloud while beauty unfolds like a rose

It's a terrible life
But none of it ever happened
I have my sunny, sunny days
Always served blackened

I′m under a cloud and no one knows
Under a cloud while beauty unfolds
I′m under a cloud and no-one knows
Under a cloud while beauty unfolds like a rose
Like a rose

Bailing out water from this lush lifeboat,
Bailing out water from this lush lifeboat
