Cloud 9

(album: I'd Rather Be Asleep - 2022)

Burn your face into the back of my mind
So I'll never forget how you looked that night
At the perfect time you entered my life
It started as a spark and turned into a wildfire

Your heart on a string in front of me
Peering through the screen but I can't reach
Eyes of emerald green, enamoring
Cosmic mystery or destiny?
(No one else exists)

Every time I close my eyes
I'm finding myself back on cloud nine
If this is just a dream
I'd rather be asleep
And if I don't wake up I'll be just fine
I'll be just fine

Bliss, reveling in reverie
Is this too good to be real?
If this is heaven, then where have I been?
'Cause my head's up in the clouds and I'm never coming down
I'm never coming down

Every time I close my eyes
I'm finding myself back on cloud nine
If this is just a dream
I'd rather be asleep
And if I don't wake up I'll be just fine
I'll be just fine
I'll be just fine
I'll be just fine

Take my hand, I'll carry you away
Won't you stay and fly with me

I close my eyes
I'm finding myself back on cloud nine

Every time I close my eyes
I'm finding myself back on cloud nine
If this is just a dream
I'd rather be asleep
And if I don't wake up I'll be just fine
I'll be just fine
