Lyrics to the video 

Hello two clouds floating by
like watercolor paintings in my mind.

Hello two clouds floating by
like watercolor paintings in my minds.

How are you and how are we
I hope that we are doing very fine.

Throwing pictures on the road
we travel as each other all the time.

~~

Sitting in my room on a cloudy day,
wondering just what there is to say.

People disappear, people lose their way.
People forget what they have to say.

By tomorrow, by today,
can’t you see that what we say
was left to die, was left to pray
and it will never touch
my tomorrow, your today.

I’m stealing from your time,
but don’t you, don’t touch mine.

You’re searching out my line,
but see me, I am blind.

Hide me here, hide you there,
but never left yourself be scared.

Or you will falter on your way,
lie tomorrow, cry today.
