Lyrics
Born on a different cloud
From the ones that have burst around town
It's no surprise to me
That you're classless, clever and free
Loaded just like a gun
You're the hero that's still unsung
Living on borrowed time
You're my sun and you're gonna shine
Talking to myself again
This time I think I'm getting through
It's funny how you think
It's funny how, it's funny how when you do
Born on a different cloud
From the ones that have burst 'round town
It's no surprise to me
That you're classless, clever and free
Lonely soul, busy working overtime
Nothing ever gets done, especially when your hands are tied
Lonely soul, breaking up your mother's pride
Nothing ever gets done, not until your war's won
We're born on a different cloud
You're born on a different cloud
We're born on a different cloud
We're born on a different cloud
We're born on a different cloud
We're born on a different cloud
Born on a different cloud
We're born on a different cloud

Notes
Liam Gallagher composed the song at a piano during a trip to France, drawing inspiration from a rare book he read: Living on Borrowed Time, by Frederick Seeman. In interviews, Liam described the process as intuitive, noting that he doesn't play much but the melody and words flowed quickly from basic chords.
