Lyrics

La Clouda – The Song of the Cloud

[Intro Spoken]
“Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome:
Eddy Kwinn, singing about the long and winding journey … into the Cloud!”

[Verse 1]
When a server’s growing older,
and the backup fails again,
all the data ships of today
do not sail to foreign lands – no –
they are drifting high … to the Cloud!

[Chorus]
La Clouda, ohé La Clouda,
our longing pulls the data far.
La Clouda, ohé La Clouda,
the Cloud becomes our guiding star.

[Verse 2]
Admins cry in quiet sorrow,
when the system breaks once more.
But the Cloud will hold tomorrow,
keeping safe what we adore.
All is carried forth … to the Cloud!

[Chorus]
La Clouda, ohé La Clouda,
our longing pulls the data far.
La Clouda, ohé La Clouda,
the Cloud becomes our guiding star.

[Verse 3]
Cables rust in darkened basements,
lonely, cold and left behind.
Only cooling fans keep singing,
like the waves against the tide.
Everything departs … to the Cloud!

[Chorus]
La Clouda, ohé La Clouda,
our longing pulls the data far.
La Clouda, ohé La Clouda,
the Cloud becomes our guiding star.

[Outro]
La Clouda … ohé La Clouda …
the song of the Cloud … forevermore!
