Clouds - Quintette du Hot Club de France

Clouds are only dewdrops that once kissed a rose

Do you remember how we watched them drifting by

Long ago when love began

Clouds floating thru the night

While the silver stars above

Lend their tender light

Clouds drifting thru the sky

While I wonder why my love ever said goodbye

The night was young

The breeze was warm and tender

A fool was I but how was I to know

I gladly gave my heart in sweet surrender

To learn that love was meant to come and go

Like snowhite clouds floating through the night

Speaking of a love that was heavenly

A love that could never be mine

Once we were together and now we’re apart

Did you find it easy to forget?

I keep on dreaming while the years go drifting by

Calling you my «Sweet Regret»

Clouds floating thru the night

While the silver stars above

Lend their tender light

Clouds drifting thru the sky

While I wonder why my love ever said goodbye

The night was young

The breeze was warm and tender

A fool was I but how was I to know

I gladly gave my heart in sweet surrender

To learn that love was meant to come and go

Like snowhite Clouds Floating thru the night

Speaking of a love that was heavenly

A love that could never be mine
