There's a cloud that hangs above us For to darken every light And to take our spirits from us Like a bandit in the night There's a storm on the horizon Here to wake us from our sleep It's gonna warm us and to frighten Every child of pleasant dreams But never mind the rain It only aims to slow you down Never mind the rain It only means to show you how To be in the now To be in the now There's a man behind the curtain He got the whole world in his hands He knows that nothing is for certain And how he laugh at all our plans
