in the sky

Françoise Hardy

You try to speak to him
He never says a word
You think he listens
But does he ever hear
And when he looks at you
He's talking with his eyes
But does he see you there
And does he really care

You're walking slowly
And you want to hold him tight
You turn to see him
And he's vanished in the night
He's going to hurt you
And then he will make you cry
One day you'll understand
He'll take you by the hand
You'll be walking in the sky

He's drifting oh so high
You're with him don't you ask him why
The clouds are passing by
In the sky
