De wolken
Toon Hermans
The Clouds
Would you like to live with me on the clouds
Tell me, would you like to walk with me along the rainbow
Together in the clouds, closer to the sun
Would you do that if you could
Tell me, would you like to live with me on the clouds
Would you like to go with me along that white Milky Way
At night, then I write verses on the white moon balloon
Would you do that if you could
We take turns cleaning the stars
The kings, the bears, big and small
I hear them down there already saying
Where could those two lovers
Have gone
Would you like to live with me on the clouds
Sleeping together on that sheepskin
Because the world, the world is so harsh, dear child
And the clouds are so soft, so soft
So soft are the clouds, so soft
