  • 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 Writer/s: ZACHARY DAVID SOBIECH

  • Amy from TennesseeThis is one of the most beautiful yet poignant songs I've ever heard. Zach left us all a message about life. I am 70 and it resonates with me since I lost a close family member to Alzheimer's. I listen to this song all the time on Amazon Music.
  • Justice Lucky from NigeriaI love this music
  • AnonymousSuch an inspiring song!!!!!
  • Emily Clinebell Zach's song Clouds was an amazing song and I listen to it everyday and watching the new Disney+ movie called clouds really made me wonder way an aweful thing had to happen to him and happen to every other kid who has died from his rare disese and it is heart breaking what has happened to him and am sending hope and joy to Zach's family and I am praying even tho this happened in 2013 Zach's soul still lives on and so does his and Sammy briwns music and I'm am greatly sorry for everyone's loss.
  • Michealawandler from Stevi, Mt"If only I had a little more time with you" it kills me so much! ;(
  • Michealawandler from Stevi, MtLove the song!!!! Too bad he had to leave use in such a early age. I didn't even know him but it seems he has a lot of talent. Wish he didn't leave us. This song has gotten me through a lot of hard times when my grandma died this past week.
