The Bangles - Under a Cloud lyrics

It's August again and I'm on my own I'm under a cloud and I'm staying home The telephone rings and I am hiding out Rituals carved on a well-worn path It's up with people but I'm failing that cla** So many reasons to smile but I'm happy to doubt I'm under a cloud and no one knows Under a cloud while beauty unfolds like a rose I've been down so long I've got a fear of heights My mind keeps telling me that something's not right So I walk in the sun in my rain hat and overcoat It makes no sense and it's so surreal Despite what you see I fear what I feel And I'm bailing out water from this lush lifeboat I'm under a cloud and no one knows Under a cloud while beauty unfolds like a rose It's a terrible life But none of it ever happened I have my sunny, sunny days Always served blackened I'm under a cloud and no one knows Under a cloud while beauty unfolds I'm under a cloud and no one knows Under a cloud while beauty unfolds like a rose Like a rose Bailing out water from this lush lifeboat Bailing out water from this lush lifeboat
