Cotton Candy Sky takes us on an enchantingly descriptive journey through nature and colour, and highlights the importance of trust and gratitude in life.
As much as we try, we will never be in control of everything. Lows are followed by highs. Sadness is followed by smiles. Just as clouds come with rain, soon they will be blown away to reveal the cotton candy sky again.

Chorus

Allah has given me a Cotton Candy Sky

A little bit of blue, pink, purple and white
I sometimes see the grey and I sometimes feel the rain
But I’ll see the Colours of the Cotton Candy Sky again

Verse 1

I see the red of my mother’s love
The true blue of my father’s hugs
I see the orange of my siblings smile
I see the pink and the white of the love of my life
And the deep, deep green that all children bring
Are the coolness of my eyes

Chorus

For Allah has given me a Cotton Candy Sky
A little bit of blue, pink, purple and white
I sometimes see the grey and I sometimes feel the rain
But I’ll see the Colours of the Cotton Candy Sky again

Bridge

Whenever I am down, I look up to the sky
And I see the signs from Allah, Most High
Most of all I see Light
Endless Light upon Light
Mercy from Allah who is yours and mine
Ar Rahmanir Raheem
Rabbal Aalameen
Bismillah and again I begin

Verse 2

I see the yellow like a sunflower smile
Of an orphan girl who says Alhamdulillah
Or a Mother who lost her child
Sees them waiting on a throne of gold so high
Or a Father who holds his stride
Working hard everyday and is firm in his faith
Burning bright like a beautiful crimson flame
Says Allah keep my family safe

Chorus

For Allah has given me a Cotton Candy Sky
A little bit of blue, pink, purple and white
I sometimes see the grey and I sometimes feel the rain
But I’ll see the Colours of the Cotton Candy Sky again

Bridge

Whenever I am down, I look up to the sky
And I see the signs from Allah, Most High
Most of all I see Light
Endless Light upon Light
Mercy from Allah who is yours and mine
Ar Rahmanir Raheem
Rabbal Aalameen
Bismillah and again I begin

Bridge (2)

Both yours and mine
When the tears in our eyes
Sting and blur out the light
But these lows bring the highs
Of the strength I have inside
To always see my Cotton Candy Sky

Chorus

For Allah has given me a Cotton Candy Sky
A little bit of blue, pink, purple and white
I sometimes see the grey and I sometimes feel the rain
But I’ll see the Colours of the Cotton Candy Sky again
