If I could
I would build a house in the clouds
Where I could sit and talk with you
We would laugh
Hug and dance and play
Just like we used to do
Where the sun shines brightly
And warms the soul
We'd laugh, hand in hand
From the day's sweet dawn
Until it's set
We would confidently make our plans
If I could
I would build a house in the clouds
Where life is sunny, gay, and bright
And the sting of death
Has never been felt
So everything is right
Where I could
Turn this sorrow into joy
And give my heart relief
Instead of wandering
Lonely and empty
My only company grief
I gaze on the horizon
Watching clouds go by
And I start to wonder, too
What if I could
Build a house in the clouds
To sit and talk with you
