I hear 'em laughing on cloud 9   In a world so happy just above mine   No one's leaving like you left me   They got each other got all they need, but      Here on cloud 8   A lotta nothing's going on   I'm just drifting day to day   Out here on my own   While up on cloud 9   I hear 'em party all the time   They don't hear my heart break   Down here on cloud 8      We almost made it up where they are   But losing your love   Brought me down hard   Now I'm just hanging, just getting by   Where expectations aren't that high, but      Here on cloud 8   A lotta nothing's going on   I'm just drifting day to day   Out here on my own   While up on cloud 9   I hear 'em party all the time   They don't hear my heart break   Down here on cloud 8      While up on cloud 9   I hear 'em party all the time   They don't hear my heart break   Down here on cloud 8   They don't hear my heart break   Down here on cloud 8
