Landslide
Haley Klinkhammer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I Climbed a mountain and I turned around
And I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills
Where the landslide brought me down
Oh, mirror in the sky, what is love?
Can the child within my heart rise above?
And Can I sail through the changin' ocean tides?
Oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh, ohh
Well, I've been 'fraid of changin'
'Cause I've built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Children get older
And I'm gettin' older, too
Well, I've been 'fraid of changin'
'Cause I've built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Children get older
And I'm gettin' older, too
So take my love, take it down
Oh, climb a mountain and turn around
And if you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well, the landslide will bring me down
And if you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well, maybe
Well maybe
Well maybee
The landslide will bring you down
In Haley Klinkhammer's song Landslide, the lyrics describe a journey of self-discovery and introspection. The singer is reflecting on a past love and the impact it had on her life. She begins by recounting how she took her love down a path that ultimately led to a mountain where she saw her reflection in the snow-covered hills. This metaphorical reflection represents her own emotional state and the wounds caused by the past relationship that have not yet healed.
The lyrics then transition to a contemplation of the meaning of love and the capacity for personal growth. Klinkhammer asks, "Mirror in the sky, what is love?" and questions whether her inner child can rise above the pain of her past. She wonders whether she can "sail through the changin' ocean tides" and whether she can "handle the seasons of [her] life." These lyrics suggest that Klinkhammer is grappling with feelings of uncertainty and vulnerability in the wake of a challenging relationship.
As the song progresses, Klinkhammer acknowledges her resistance to change and how it has been a hindrance in her life. She confesses that she has been "afraid of changin'" because she has built her life around the person she loves. However, time has a way of making one bolder and of forcing one to confront and adapt to changes. This theme of personal growth and transformation is a central theme of the song.
In conclusion, Landslide is a poignant and reflective song that speaks to the universal experience of heartbreak and personal growth. The lyrics convey a sense of vulnerability, but also an underlying hope that through self-reflection and resilience, one can heal and evolve.

I took my love, I took it down
Climbed a mountain and I turned around
And I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills
'Til the landslide brought it down
Oh, mirror in the sky
What is love?
Can the child within my heart rise above?
Can I sail through the changin' ocean tides?
Can I handle the seasons of my life?

And if you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well the landslide will bring it down
And if you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well the landslide will bring it down
Oh, the landslide will bring it down
