"Floating in a Cloud" is a song from the My Friends Tigger & Pooh story "Darby's Fog-Gone Mystery." In the story, Roo and Lumpy are upset about not being able to play in Rabbit's garden because of fog that is making it difficult to see. When they call in the Super Sleuths, they try various methods to get rid of it, but nothing works. Rabbit explains that fog is actually a type of cloud that just has to dissipate on its own when the sun comes out. This makes Roo and Lumpy happy because they love the idea of playing in a cloud. They, Pooh, Tigger, and Darby, with the help of an unidentified group of vocalists, sing this song to express their joy. After the song ends, the group talks for a bit, and then everyone reprises the song to end the story.

Vocalists:
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Pooh:
I am floating in a cloud
High above the crowd
In a cotton candy boat
We sail
Oh, yes!
Up above the trail
Over hill and dale
Pooh and Vocalists:
I am floating in a cloud
Vocalists:
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh...
Pooh: Tigger, do you happen to know what a dale is?
Tigger: Hey, I don't even know where my tail is. Kinda hard to see, don't you know?
I'm bouncing through a cloud
Pouncing through a cloud
Bestest bouncing place I've found, hoo hoo hoo!
Clouds are fluffy and they're floaty
Kind of puffy, kind of bloaty
Tigger and Vocalists:
Billowy and pillowy
I'm a-bouncing through the clouds
Roo: Guess what I am, everyone.
Lumpy: What, Roo?
Roo:
I'm a bird up in a cloud
Like an eagle flying proud
Watch me gliding through the air
Vocalists:
Glide through the air
Roo:
Flying high without a care
Roo and Vocalists:
I'm a bird up in a cloud
Lumpy: (shining a flashlight) Guess what we are.
Roo: Lightning bugs?
Lumpy: Nope. But you're really close.
Pooh:
We are lightning from a cloud
So frightening, oh so loud
Through the sky you'll see us zoom
Vocalists:
You'll see us zoom
Pooh:
When you hear the thunder boom
Pooh and Vocalists:
Bolts of lightning from a cloud.
... ...
Pooh, Tigger, and Darby:
We are floating in a cloud
