Last night when I went to bed

I wrote this letter in my head

I was too spaced out for you to reach me

I used to teach you, now you teach me

I never thought that you were gonna realize

What you hide inside, so now I'm well surprised

They say my head is in the clouds

They say my head is in the clouds

Cloud nine, to be precise

You see the world is turning on

And some things are just the way they are, they are

The world is turning on

And some things are just the way they, just the way they are

I take the best words that come to my mind

The nicest melody that I can find

I write the greatest song that I can write

To bring you back into my life

Back then, God had sent me to make you angry

To send you on your journey

'Cause there were things you had to learn

They say my head is in the clouds

They say my head is in the clouds

Cloud nine, to be precise

You see, our world ain't in this world, no no no

See our world ain't in this world

Cloud nine, to be precise

You see the world is turning on

And some things are just the way they are, they are

The world is turning on

And some things are just the way they, just the way they are

Right, take it down

I turn my back on this, it wouldn't change a thing

It's just the way it is, you couldn't change a thing

It's been from ever since, from before time begins

I surrender all there is, no joy like this again

You take all my songs, I wrote them for you

See, I didn't know, I only thought I knew

You were invisible and now you're visible

Was I too blind to see? Like the sun, it dawns on me

The world is turning on

And some things are just the way they are, they are

The world is turning on

And some things are just the way they, just the way they are
