What if all the grown-ups left working so hard
Dropped all their things and stared at the sky
All the busy nothings that could fill a cup
Days and nights flew by and they've forgotten to be scared of the dark
'Cause every little minute's filled with things to do
And me and you have found that there's
No time to see the clouds up so high
Is it so hard to remember
How it all used to be?
They say youth is lost on the young
Who never knew they were free
Here we are
We're lost on a cloud
Darling, it's okay to while the hours away
Darling, it's okay to pass the time
And while we're here forever, I just wanna hear you laughing out loud
'Cause every little minute's filled with things to do
And me and you have found that there's
No time to see the clouds up so high
Is it so hard to remember
What we had, you and me?
They say youth is lost on the young
Who never knew they were free
