Catch Me
Krebitz Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I heard she drove the silvery sports car
Along the empty streets last night
Hanging around
With hair-dos like mine
No I haven't seen the kids for some time

Picked up her shoes from the red brick stairway
Just like a harpsichordist she moves
And back upstairs at half past two
With a paper folded outside the loo

Rain falls like Elvis' tears
Oh no, no sugar tonight
Out on the high street
Dim all the lights and
Cry coloured tears again

And baby
Don't forget to catch me
Don't forget to catch me
Don't forget to catch me
Hobart paving, don't you think that it's time?
On this platform with the drizzle in my eyes

And baby
Don't forget to catch me
Don't forget to catch me
Don't forget to catch me
Hobart paving, don't you think that it's time?
The ticket's in my hand, the train pulls down the line

Rain falls like Elvis' tears
Oh no, no sugar
Out on the high street
Dim all the lights and
Cry coloured tears...

And baby
Don't forget to catch me
Don't forget to catch me
Don't forget to catch me
Hobart paving, don't you think that it's time?
On this platform with the drizzle in my eyes

(Oh no no sugar tonight) don't forget to catch me
(Oh no no sugar tonight) don't forget to catch me




(Oh no no sugar tonight) don't forget to catch me
Don't forget to catch me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Krebitz's song Catch Me seem to describe a situation where the singer is reminiscing about a woman he used to know, who drove a silvery sports car and had similar hair-dos as the singer. He acknowledges not having seen "the kids" for some time, which could refer to their own children or a group of friends they hung out with. The singer describes watching the woman move like a harpsichordist as she picked up her shoes from a red brick stairway and went back upstairs at half-past two with a paper folded outside the loo. The chorus seems to be a plea to "catch" the singer as he is about to leave, possibly referencing catching a train. The rain falling like Elvis' tears and the cry of coloured tears could symbolize a sense of sadness or longing.


The song's up to interpretation, but at the core, it explores the theme of missed connections and leaving someone behind while reminiscing about the memories shared. It speaks of the yearning for acknowledgment and a longing for someone to catch them before they leave.

I heard she drove the silvery sports car
I heard that she was driving a shiny sports car


Along the empty streets last night
She was driving on the deserted streets last night


Hanging around
Spending her time doing nothing much


With hair-dos like mine
She had a similar hairstyle to mine


No I haven't seen the kids for some time
I haven't seen my kids for a while now


Picked up her shoes from the red brick stairway
She picked up her shoes from the stairs made of red bricks


Just like a harpsichordist she moves
She moves gracefully like a skilled musician playing a harpsichord


And back upstairs at half past two
She went back upstairs at 2:30 AM


With a paper folded outside the loo
She had a piece of paper folded outside the restroom


Rain falls like Elvis' tears
The rain is falling heavily like tears of Elvis Presley


Oh no, no sugar tonight
Exclamation of disappointment or worry


Out on the high street
Outside on the main street


Dim all the lights and
Switch off all the lights and


Cry coloured tears again
Feels sad and crying again


And baby Don't forget to catch me
Do not forget to catch me


Hobart paving, don't you think that it's time?
Asking Hobart paving whether they think it's time


On this platform with the drizzle in my eyes
On this platform with a little bit of rain and my eyes watering


The ticket's in my hand, the train pulls down the line
I have the ticket in my hand and the train is arriving on the tracks

Wenn ich diesen Song höre, dann habe ich eine Sehnsucht in mir. Eine Sehnsucht nach absoluter Freiheit und einem Ort, an dem es nichts schlechtes gibt und jeder Mensch so sein kann, wie er/sie es will

@evelynk.1870
