Look up, way up, where the big blue bends
A wispy wonder, a tale that never ends
Nimbus is floating, a silver ship on high
Changing the game in the endless, open sky.
I'm the master of the air,
spinning forms that swiftly fly
Not just a droplet waiting to descend and sigh
From a fierce lion's roar to a smooth,
smiling face
I travel the globe, leaving magic in my trace
I teach the young ones how to
dance, how to dream and grow
Look down at the deserts, watch
the frozen mountains glow.
Oh, cloud, traveling cloud,
the wind is my steering wheel!
Floating high, floating
free, that's the way I feel!
Look for your purpose, little
one, and make your dreams real!
The traveling cloud! (The traveling cloud!)
They ask me what's the
mission, why I never rain below
I tell them knowledge travels
fast, it helps the spirit flow
I was a ship over the ocean,
a dragon in the breeze
Telling tales of cities and
the ancient, quiet trees
But every grand adventure
finds a final, deep desire
To give back the water, fuel
the land with vital fire.
Oh, cloud, traveling cloud,
the wind is my steering wheel!
Floating high, floating
free, that's the way I feel!
Look for your purpose, little
one, and make your dreams real!
The traveling cloud! (The traveling cloud!)
Listen closely to the gentle, soft descent
This is not ending, it’s a life well-spent
I’m falling as rain, a million drops of light
My spirit stays soaring, teaching what is right
Look for my memory in the shapes you see again.
Oh, cloud, traveling cloud,
the wind is my steering wheel!
Floating high, floating
free, that's the way I feel!
Look for your purpose, little
one, and make your dreams real!
The traveling cloud! (The traveling cloud!)
Through the vast blue sky, the journey never stops
Just watch the clouds for the wisdom of the drops
The traveling cloud, forever high above...
