Lyrics

[Verse 1]
How do I stumble on the perfect season?
Why do I get happy for no reason?
Cloud Nine is a mystery
Cloud Nine is a mystery
Cloud Nine is a mystery to me
[Verse 2]
Why does that girl make me feel this way?
It was no consideration yesterday
Cloud Nine is a mystery
Cloud Nine is a mystery
Cloud Nine is a mystery to me
[Chorus]
In a flash of lightning, it feels perfectly sane
To stand outside in the driving rain
In a flash of time, I can't feel any pain
Got nothing to lose and everything to gain
[Verse 3]
I feel so handsome knocking on her door
I felt so ugly just a week before
Cloud Nine is a mystery
Cloud Nine is a mystery
Cloud Nine is a mystery to me
[Verse 4]
Why is it thrilling sailing on the ocean
When I got on board, I couldn't take the motion?
Cloud Nine is a mystery
Cloud Nine is a mystery
Cloud Nine is a mystery to me
[Verse 5]
In one quick minute of never-ending spring
I live in the kingdom where I am the king
Who knows or cares what tomorrow will bring?
Right now, all I wanna do is sing
[Chorus]
In a flash of lightning, it feels perfectly sane
To stand outside in the driving rain
In a flash of time, I can't feel any pain
Got nothing to lose and everything to gain
[Refrain]
Cloud Nine is a mystery
Cloud Nine is a mystery
Cloud Nine is a mystery to me
[Outro]
Cloud Nine is a mystery
Cloud Nine is a mystery
Cloud Nine is a mystery to me
