"Cloud 9" is the closing track on "Honeymoon". It is described as "a surprisingly up-tempo and motivational number" and "an undeniably giddy love song." The instrumentation is sparse throughout the verses, with guitars mixed low put focus on the drums and the "understated yet danceable bassline". The song's Strokes-influenced bass solo "demonstrat[es] the band's natural cool even as they throw themselves into passion". In the song, Lili Trifilio sings about the highs of love against a simple indie pop hook, that turns into "a driving force of energy and enthusiasm" when her bandmates come crashing in for the chorus. Trifilo said of the song's lyrics, "I sought out to write a true, gushy, genuine love song when creating 'Cloud 9'. At the time I was at a questionable point in my relationship and I was reflecting on the last few years and how despite the ups and downs, love held us together. I hope that anyone who listens to this song can feel the love in the lyrics and give love a chance, as well as remember to always love themselves first and foremost."
The song was released with an official animated music video directed by Margaret Bialis. The video features a pink-haired girl who feels down in her luck, until a man appears with flowers, balloons, and "the type of happiness only love can prompt", while also singing to a crowd of snails.

Beach Bunny Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I'm confident when I'm with you
Lately all I feel is bad and bruised
Tired of tripping on my shoes
But when he loves me I feel like I'm floating
When he calls me pretty I feel like somebody
Even when we fade eventually to nothing
When I start to tumble from the sky
You remind me how to fly
Lately, I've been feeling not alive
But you bring me back to life
But when she loves me, I feel like I'm floating
When she calls me pretty, I feel like somebody
Even when we fade eventually, to nothing
You will always be my favorite form of loving
But when they love me, I feel like I'm floating
When they call me pretty, I feel like somebody
Even when we fade eventually, I'm nothing
You will always be my favorite form of loving
The lyrics of Beach Bunny’s “Cloud 9” express a bittersweet feeling of being sustained by the love of another person. The singer admits that she feels bad and bruised but feels confident and light when she is around the person she loves. The song suggests that love can inspire and uplift, but also acknowledges that the feeling does not last forever. In the chorus, the repetition of “When he loves me, I feel like I’m floating” expresses the euphoric sensation that being in love can bring, while “Even when we fade eventually to nothing, You will always be my favorite form of loving” suggests a sense of loss and nostalgia for the good times.
The following verses reinforce the theme of love as an escape from life’s challenges. When the singer feels like she is “tumbling from the sky,” her love reminds her how to fly. She feels as if her life lacks vitality, but her significant other revives her. The bridge affirms the song’s message that love has transformative powers, even if it is temporary. The final chorus changes pronouns and broadens the song’s perspective to suggest that love can come from many different sources and still provide a sense of self-esteem and happiness.

Lately, I've been feeling not alive
But you bring me back to life
But when she loves me, I feel like I'm floating

I'm not sure if you already know this, but you have unknowingly saved my life numerous times. I wouldn't be who I am today if it weren't for you. You were there for me during my darkest times, you were so patient with me and stayed with me despite the fact that I repeatedly gave you a lot of hard times. Thank you for always boosting my confidence and making me feel beautiful and at ease despite my doubts. Thank you for always listening to me and keeping me from hurting myself and breaking down. We don't know what the future holds for us; we may still talk years from now, or we may not. But, despite all of those uncertainties, know that one thing will never change: you will always be my favorite form of love.
Also, please know that I will continue to shower you with assurance and love every day or whenever you are in doubt. Just come to me, and we'll go through things together: things that you can't do alone. I know you're brave, but if you ever need someone to be there for you, I'll be there.
