Clouds
Detro Mighty Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Summer night
Feeling right, yuh yuh
Out my mind
I'm in flight, yuh yuh
Oh my god
How you caught my eye
I'd expect to die at that
In the grass we lay
In the starts we stay
Where the bards and gods and horizon
On the moon, in the night, that's where I will be
Summertime is the time where the clock won't speak
When the sunlight fades
Under night's dark shade
Where the moonlight breaks to pieces
I know we're gonna need this
I know we're gonna
Summertime in the sunset shade
And we'll go all night till the moonlight break
Through the clouds
High tide in the ocean waves
Will we fall, just might 'cause we get no breaks when it's
Summertime in the sunset shade
And we'll go all night till the moonlight breaks
Dance with me
Under the stars
Your glowing eyes
Boy I want your warm
Boy I want you heart
Blue like the ocean I'll give you devotion
Ooo
Had me feel some kind of way
Swim in the waves, we'll stay all day
I don't really got much time to stay
We conversate
Reminisce of better days
Mind going rapid on tide flows
You by my side makes the time slow down
Studying my waves all I do is surf
Riding my heights all for better or worse
Grab my board, cc me boy for reaching out
Pack my bags and I'm out of time
Hazing shit to slow down time
And we'll go
Ooo
It ain't fair
The things that she can do to me
Ooo
We won't spare
The time that we have wasted
Ooo
I won't wait
To dock my head in freezing blue
Ooo
And golden sand
Always feels nice when it's
Summertime in the sunset shade
And we'll go all night till the moonlight break
Through the clouds
High tide in the ocean waves
Will we fall, just might 'cause we get no breaks when it's
Summertime in the sunset shade
And we'll go all night till the moonlight break
Through the clouds




High tide in the ocean waves
Will we fall, just might 'cause we get no breaks when it's
