I've been walking on the soft sand Since this morning when the sky was clear With my paintbox in one hand Remember last time when you were here See the clouds come Unfold the blank white sheet over me Come cover me, consume me Oh, oh what are we to do? You know that I love you, I don't want to lose you Sometimes I just feel suffocated I can feel when the clouds come I can feel when the clouds come I painted a picture Stepped back to see Saw you in a new light How wrong could I be? See the clouds come, oh, oh See the clouds come I've been walking and it feels like hours I've got ear ache from the winter wind From high up on the most Northern point You said you'd tell me everything, everything I painted a picture Stepped back to see Saw you in a new light How wrong could I be? See the clouds come, oh, oh Unfold the blank white sheet over me Come cover me, consume me Oh, oh what are we to do? I've been crying through the seagulls And I've been swept up on the shoreline Feeling bleak as the white sky And I'm cold, I'm cold, cold and I'm going home See the clouds come oh, oh See the clouds come Come cover me, come cover me Come cover me yeah, come cover me
