Waltzing In The Clouds - 1934

James Pitt-Payne, London and Ian Cousins, Opera Australia - 12 Mar 2001

I was a mortal with feet on the ground,
There I was standing with people around.
Lovely music started somewhere
And I started floating on air.
Into a dream world I wandered afar,
I saw you smile and I reached for a star
Could it happen?
Would it happen?
I only know here we are.
Waltzing, waltzing high in the clouds;
Drifting, dreaming far from the crowds
Over a moonbeam we stroll away,
While the world below seems to roll away,
And we go waltzing,
waltzing high in the clouds,
Only you and I in the clouds.
No one will hear
when you call me your dear one
While waltzing high in the clouds
Waltzing, waltzing high in the clouds;
Drifting, dreaming far from the crowds
Over a moonbeam we stroll away,
While the world below seems to roll away,
And we go waltzing,
waltzing high in the clouds,
Only you and I in the clouds.
No one will hear
when you call me your dear one
While waltzing high in the clouds
You and I waltzing high,
Waltzing In The Clouds.
