The Seekers – The Sad Cloud

The Sad Cloud

Hey music lovers! Today, I want to introduce you to a hidden gem from the 60s that will tug at your heartstrings. It’s called “The Sad Cloud” by the talented group, The Seekers.

Released in 1967 as part of their album “Seekers Seen in Green,” this hauntingly beautiful song showcases the incredible vocal harmonies that The Seekers are known for. (If you want to listen to the song, you can find it here.)

The composition of “The Sad Cloud” is a true work of art. The Seekers’ lead vocalist, Judith Durham, wrote the song herself, pouring her emotions into every word. The melancholic melody perfectly captures the feeling of a heavy cloud hanging over one’s heart.

But what does the song mean? Well, “The Sad Cloud” is a metaphor for the weight of sadness and loneliness that can sometimes consume us. It speaks to the universal experience of feeling lost and isolated, even when surrounded by others. The lyrics are poetic and introspective, inviting listeners to reflect on their own emotions and experiences.

Over the years, “The Sad Cloud” has become a fan favorite, resonating with people of all ages. Its timeless message and the raw vulnerability in Judith Durham’s voice make it a truly unforgettable piece of music.

The Sad Cloud – The Seekers lyrics

🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics! 🎤

What am I to you?
What am I to do
Now summer’s almost through in September?
For love has come and gone,
Didn’t stay for long,
One thing I will always remember.

When the green whispering leaves had called your name,
The gentle sighing winds they did the same.
Now the sun has left the sky, and for no reason why,
The sad cloud is crying tears of rain.

We stood and watched the rain,
Perhaps we will again,
For no-one knows what’s coming tomorrow.One day you may find
That I am close behind,
Wherever you may go I will follow.

And the green whispering leaves will call your name,
The gentle sighing winds will do the same.
Now the sun is in the sky, and for no reason why,
The sad cloud is cryin’ itself away.

And the green whispering leaves will call your name,
The gentlew sighing winds will do the same.
Now the sun is in the sky, and for no reason why,
The sad cloud is cryin’ itself away.
