Lyrics
You alone of all
You in the sky
I want to know why clouds come in between you and I
You alone of all
You in the sky
I want to know why clouds come in between you and I
Let me know you
Lover woo me
Open up my heart and sing your song right through me
Let me know you
Lover woo me
Open up my heart and sing your song right through me
You alone of all
You in the sky
I want to know why clouds come in between you and I
You alone of all...
You in the sky...
I want to know...
Why clouds...
Come in between...
You and I...
