Treetops
Cloud Control Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

In my car
All those tears
In the forest
From the fears
She dubs rocket
He don't lock it
Don't stop it
Beast on a rocket

No more change
No more chance
No more time
Can reverb it?
Think so
Non-stop it
All my life

Slow love

Hit me in the treetops
Sorry for the tear drops
Miss you when you're gone
All this atmospheric pressure
Holding us together
Tell me I'm not wrong

You cover everything like the atmosphere around me
Slow love
Slow love
You cover everything like the atmosphere around me
Slow love

You cover everything
The atmosphere around me
You cover everything

Got a feeling when you hold me
And it's just like you know me
We stop and you go
When my heart's running cold
Yeah over and over
Give me everything that I need
Like the atmosphere around me
And it's just like you know me

Slow love
Slow love
Slow love

Hit me in the treetops
Sorry for the tear drops
Miss you when you're gone
All this atmospheric pressure
Holding us together
Tell me I'm not wrong
All this atmospheric pressure
Holding us together
Tell me I'm not wrong

You cover everything like the atmosphere around me
Slow love
Slow love




You cover everything like the atmosphere around me
Slow love

They describe this love as "slow love" that hits them in the treetops and holds them together through any atmospheric pressure that may come their way.

Accidentally heard this on Triple J. Fell in love with it. Had to look online to find the song. This is a gem. Already on my 10th run.

@centuryhelix8727

Spotify notified me today that Australian Indie is my fourth favorite genre to listen to. Itโ€™s this song. I have listened to this song so many times that it alone put it near the top of my favorite genres overall

@TomzBomb99

How does this only have 9000 views!?!?!? This is absolutely beautiful.

@hallowedbethynameyahuah7705

@clazza65

Brilliant. Takes me back to the 80's. Real music. Thank you.

@clazza65

Sad to hear that they split to pursue new, successful dreams. Going to miss ever seeing you live in concert gang. Happiness to all.

@darrenmarsh8830

@@clazza65 I saw them play twice in South Australia, the Bridgeway & at The Gov.
The Gov show was one of perfection.
