Lyrics

If I were a cloud
feet off the ground
with a blue back drop, hanging around
and if I could fly like a bird
I would stretch out both my arms
soaring through town
chirping songs I have heard
then I would face the sun
looking outward
the stars would come gather around me
and heaven and mother Earth
would spend the day
watching me play
if I stood tall like a tree
I would stand perfectly still
till a breeze came at will, and moved me
And if I could build things like the ant
imagine the things I would make
no matter how long they'd take
just to move them about
and then I would face the sun
looking outward
the stars would come gather around me
and heaven and mother Earth
would spend the day
watching me play
if I was strong like an ox
able to pull all my weight
and still gravitate
to the straw in the box
then I would face the sun
looking outward
the stars would come gather around me
and heaven and mother Earth
would spend the day
watching me play
Oh and if, oh and if
I were a small child
laughing at everything, life had to bring
laughing out loud
Oh and if, oh and if
I could be innocent like a dream
imagining all that is golden
because it is olden
and the worth that its brings
and then I would face the sun
looking outward
the stars would come, gather around me
and heaven and mother Earth
would spend the day
watching me play
and then I would face the sun
looking outward
the stars would come, gather around me
and heaven and mother Earth
would spend the day
watching me play
