Song information
I wrote the music for this around 1997. You could say it's a Reggae song with some big time jazz overtones. I recently brought it back for some new lyrics that recently came, which is about TM or Transcendental Meditation, which is something I've been doing for several months now.

Lyrics
The thoughts in my head
Just sweep them away
Just like a book that I read yesterday

The thoughts in my head
Keep swirling around
Gonna send them away to where they should be bound

As I sit and I learn to fly
And as my friends are coming round
Would they understand the business here
Of what's truly going down
Some of my people
Might never truly understand
How one word and inner peace could lend a hand
Most never understood me anyway

The thoughts in my head
Gotta make them scat
Learn not to engage them 
And that should be the end of that

The thoughts in my head
Gotta make them fly
Gonna get my cosmic fix by and by

As I sit and I learn to fly
I can feel the great bliss coming on
And all the friends that stop by
Would they understand the business that's come and gone

Some might feel that I'm wasting time
Some might say let us take you
To a bar and you'll sing karaoke now
Can't do with any of those folks no how

The thoughts in my head
Have now gone away
And after a half an hour
Open your eyes and feel new today

The thoughts in my head
Keep drifting away
Gotta learn to be mindful today'
The thoughts in my head
Gonna sweep them away
Just like a book that I read yesterday

Nice one Mark. Interesting theme.
The clouds are not the sky, are they? They're just passing through.
Though they can drop needed rain, shield from or block out the sun's rays; etc---they remain clouds just the same. (Sorry... Coffee just kicked in!)
