From the recording Stuck in the Clouds ...Again
“Stuck in the Clouds… Again” returns to the retro feeling in an all new recording of this crowd favorite tune about missing someone who must leave home for a while to earn a living. This recording of “Stuck in the Clouds… Again” came about to correct some deficiencies in the 2016 original. The vocals were recorded in a proper studio and all other tracks were redone with fresh mix and mastering.
This recording is a bit more “produced” than his solo acoustic live version. Without access to a horn section, Ed chose to present “Stuck in the Clouds” in the form of a guitar quartet with lead, rhythm, bass and drums.
Lyrics
Stuck In The Clouds
I imagine the glamour as you get on the plane,
I imagine the places you’ll see,
I forget it’s your job and your living,
That takes you away from me,
Sailing along seven miles high,
With the moon and the stars for your friends,
I’m here on the ground missing you,
And you’re stuck in the clouds again,
You’re off to London or Paris in spring,
Other places I may never see,
For you it’s just work, and tiring at times,
When it’s rough do you think of me?
Sailing along seven miles high,
With the moon and the stars for your friends,
I’m here on the ground missing you,
And you’re stuck in the clouds again,
When you get home and you’re all mine,
At least for two days or three,
I dream when you’re leaving that I’m going too,
You’ll be stuck the clouds then with me.
I miss the touching and things we don’t say,
I’m really ok, don’t you know,
I only get lonely down here on the ground,
Only when you have to go,
Sailing along seven miles high,
With the moon and the stars for your friends,
I’m here on the ground missing you,
And you’re stuck in the clouds again,
When you get home and you’re all mine,
At least for two days or three,
I dream when you’re leaving that I’m going too,
You’ll be stuck the clouds then with me.
I dream when you’re leaving that I’m going too,
You’ll be stuck the clouds then with me.
