Song about an unsure suitor of a beautiful gal who teases him.
Stan loves music, is published (EMI/Capitol), and has experience performing on radio and TV when it was live in the good old days. These days he's just writing
Songwriter of pop, country, inspirational songs. I like to write. I travel a lot to Asia...so my music may have an Asian influence.

Lyrics
The Cloud
Copyright Stan Loh, September 9, 2012
VERSE 1
D
Nebulous cloud,
G D
Waiting for me to come flying,
G D
With golden tresses like rivers flowing,
A7 D
And when I get there you’ll be moving … someplace else,
VERSE 2
D
Drifting around,
G D
Teasing with iffy puffy lining,
G D
Those silver dreams that have me a-hanging,
A7 D
And I can tell where you are … cause you’re ringing my bells,
CHORUS
D
They’re saying beware,
G
You fly here and there,
D
When dreaming of bliss,
G
How crooked the kiss,
G
Each morning is dawning,
D
A light that may shine on you yet,
D
I’m taking the risk,
G
Your beauty insists,
D
The smile on your face,
G
When hope bets on ace,
G
The reason for weeping,
D
Just can’t take a rest,
A7 D
But I know now’s the time to climb … climb on your cloud.
INSTRUMENTAL
VERSE 3
D
We’ll fly alone,
G D
Hoping love that soon will be growing,
G D
Catch all the stars that will be glowing,
A7 D
Place them in your heart where they shine … under your spell.
Repeat Chorus
