Clouds

Have you guys watched the movie Clouds on Disney+? I haven’t yet, but my dad told me about the backstory.

A boy named Zach Sobiech (born on May 3rd, 1995) discovered he was diagnosed with osteosarcoma, an aggressive tumor of the bone, at age fourteen. and the doctor told him he would only live for a few more months. (imagine someone saying “You will only be able to live for a few more months…” to you. Wouldn’t you feel terrified?) So Zach decided to write a song called Clouds to say goodbye to his family and friends. 😥 Zach Sobiech died on May 20th, 2013. Seventeen days after his 18th birthday. Please listen to the amazing song he wrote called Clouds. 🎶

Here are the lyrics to this beautiful song:

I fell down, down, down
Into this dark and lonely hole
There was no one there to care about me anymore
And I needed a way to climb and grab a hold of the edge
You were sitting there holding a rope

And we’ll go up, up, up
But I’ll fly a little higher
Go up in the clouds because the view is a little nicer
Up here my dear
It won’t be long now, it won’t be long now

When we get back on land
Well I’ll never get my chance
Be ready to live and it’ll be ripped right out of my hands
And maybe someday we’ll take a little ride
Go up, up, up and everything will be just fine

And we’ll go up, up, up
But I’ll fly a little higher
Go up in the clouds because the view is a little nicer
Up here my dear

It won’t be long now, it won’t be long now
If only I had a little bit more time
If only I had a little bit more time with you

It could go up, up, up
Then take that little ride
We’ll sit there holding hands
And everything would be just right
And maybe someday I’ll see you again
We’ll float up in the clouds and we’ll never see the end

We’ll go up, up, up
But I’ll fly a little higher
Go up in the clouds because the view is a little nicer
Up here my dear
It won’t be long now, it won’t be long now
