lyrics

t’s a little white cloud, little white cloud,
Lonely little white cloud,
In a big blue sky

It’s a little blue flower, little cornflower,
Frail blue cornflower,
In the mornin’ hour

Pick me that flower, reach me that cloud,
Reach me that cloud, pick me that flower,
Pick me that flower

Can’t pick that flower for you,
It’ll wither and lose it’s blue,
No, I can’t pick that flower,
But I’ll reach you that cloud

Kiss me now, come be my lover,
Be my lover, kiss me now,
Oh, kiss me now

What if mystery’s taken, pulled tight to breakin’,
And trust is shaken, and love forsaken?

Oh, I can’t kiss you now, can’t be your lover,
No, I can’t kiss you now,
But I’ll be yours forever

It’s a little white cloud, and a little blue flower,
Little white cloud and a blue cornflower,
And a blue cornflower
