What's Your Version
Groove Armada Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Well, it don't shine for everyone
It seems like that same raindrop
Never fall on each rooftop
Seems like the same leaf
They never fall twice, never fall from the same tree
Seem like that same old wind
First come cool then warm again
Aah, ah, what's your version of things?
Aah, ah, what's your version of things?
I've been thinking
That everything is different every new day
(It's so nice)
Seem like I'm a brand new man
Then when the day began
Seems like brand new I'm gonna be
When the day is through with me
I'm changing, changing, changing
Rearranging and I'm acting strange
Seems no, no matter what you do
Life got away and turned around on you
Aah, ah, what's your version of things?
Aah, ah, what's your version of things?
Aah, ah, tell me what your version of things?
Aah, ah, what's your version of things?
I've been thinking
That everything is different with a new day
(And it seemed like deja vu, we were just out there)
Aah, ah, what's your version of things?
The lyrics of Groove Armada's song What's Your Version speak to the idea that life is constantly changing and each individual's experience of it is unique. The singer observes that while it may seem like the same raindrops fall and the same leaves drop from trees, in reality, everything is constantly in flux. The chorus poses the question "What's your version of things?" which can be interpreted as an invitation for listeners to reflect on their own perspectives and experiences.
The singer goes on to describe how his own experience of life is constantly evolving. He feels like a "brand new man" each day and notes that even his own behavior can feel unfamiliar and "strange" at times. This theme of transformation is reinforced in the lyrics "I'm changing, changing, changing / Rearranging and I'm acting strange." The song as a whole suggests that change is a natural and necessary part of life and encourages listeners to embrace their own unique versions of reality.

It seems like the same song
It feels like everything is staying the same
Well, it don't shine for everyone
Not everyone has the same opportunities
It seems like that same raindrop
Certain things seem to only happen to certain people
Never fall on each rooftop
Life is unpredictable and random
Seems like the same leaf
Things rarely repeat themselves
They never fall twice, never fall from the same tree
Each moment is unique and cannot be repeated
Seem like that same old wind
Life can be cyclical
First come cool then warm again
Things can change quickly and unexpectedly
Aah, ah, what's your version of things?
