Watching the Clouds Go By

Folder: 
3-Peace

Some people never are happy.

Some people live in the past.

Some people like to take their time.

And some try to move too fast.

Some people just don't understand,

and don't have the guts to ask why.

I just like to spend my time

watching the clouds go by.



Sometimes people are right.

Sometimes people are wrong.

Some people can't tell one from the other.

Sometimes they aren't that strong.

Some people spend their whole life trying

to shove a camel through a needle's eye.

I just like to spend my time

watching the clouds go by.



Some people live in hatred.

Some people live in fear.

Some people won't make it through the night.

And others won't see next year.

Some people suffer at the hands of others,

who don't care if they live or die.

I just like to spend my time

watching the clouds go by.
