Silver Cloud Lyrics

I walked on by the old school yard
As high as I envisioned
The years behind us and your decisions
Whatever it takes
Whatever you need
And I'll be there for you
Last you heard is I adore you
Well
And days go by
But that was yesterday
But you wanna still be friends
It doesn't work that way

I was floating on your silver cloud
When the storm came in
And the bottom fell out
I still wonder why I can't figure it out
Floating on your silver cloud

If time wasn't lost
And the friends you forgot
That tried to be there for you
All you wanted was to be alone
I can't win
It's over either way
Hey I know how this ends
And I don't want to play

I was floating on your silver cloud
When the storm came in
And the bottom fell out
Still I wonder why I can't figure it out
Floating on your silver cloud

I watched out friendship sink
I held out my hand
You tore another chink
And I didn't understand
Through all the white lies
Through all the black lies
Hard to survive
Since I held you up
Steal my pride as you reject my crutch

I was floating on your silver cloud
When the storm came in
And the bottom fell out
Still I wonder why I can't figure it out
Floating on your silver cloud
Floating on your silver cloud

I LOVE this song! I've been looking for it everywhere! It's not on iTunes, or even on Youtube anymore!

I think it's about her friend who's suffering from depression and is isolating himself from everyone else, and then he wants to come back in after all these years, even though they're not really friends anymore.

friends should be able to hit it off & not stop being friends just because of a time of distance/a mental condition. even though people try to help, they can't really when someone is depressed somtimes because it's a condition that needs to be treated.. it's not that a depressed person is trying to be a jerk even tho it seems like they don't care/are being selfish by shutting people out/isolating themselves. that shouldn't be the only reason why they're not really friends anymore.
