Angelo Branduardi - The Man And The Cloud lyrics

She he loved When first he saw her: She was so pale and untouchable. So far away He could never find A path to climb to reach her. All serene she gazed at him As on the wind she lay reclining. He followed her eversighing As she played hide and seek in her wide blue meadow It seemed forever That he had loved her Always so pale and untouchable. "How cruel you are, Behind your white veil You hide a heart that's frozen". Sorrowful she came to him And in her own way surrendered… Rain, gentle rain, her tears She gave to him And shedding love shed living...
