The Man and the Cloud Songtext

von Angelo Branduardi

She he loved
When first he saw her:
She was so pale and untouchable.
So far away
He could never find
A path to climb to reach her.
All serene she gazed at him
As on the wind she lay reclining.
He followed her eversighing
As she played hide and seek in her wide blue meadow

It seemed forever
That he had loved her
Always so pale and untouchable.
“How cruel you are,
Behind your white veil
You hide a heart that's frozen”.
Sorrowful she came to him
And in her own way surrendered…
Rain, gentle rain, her tests
She gave to him
And shedding love shed living...
