Clouds
Reemer Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lately I've been wondering why
Why the hell you pass me by
Drag me up to say good bye
Won't you
It's clear you never ever came
Up against a bigger name
Talk about yourself again
Won't you

Lately I've been wondering why
Why the hell you pass be by
Drag me up to say good bye
Won't you
It's clear you never ever came
Up against a bigger name
Talk about yourself again
Won't you

And you decide
It's easier
To lose your head
Not keep it
Oh no

Slow down
You've always got your head in the clouds
You've always got your head in the clouds
You've always got your head in the clouds
Just for now slow...

Down a bit before you see
Someone somewhere watching me
Whisper softly making me
Leave you

Only you could find a way
Try to win me back again
Show them you could make a change
Won't you

And you decide
That it's easier
To lose your head
Not keep it

So slow down now
You've always got your head in the clouds
You've always got your head in the clouds
You've always got your head in the clouds
Oh just for now
Slow down

And you decide
That it's easier
To lose your head
Not keep it
And you decide
That it's easier
To lose your head
Not keep it

Oh so slow down now
You've always got your head in the clouds
You've always got your head in the clouds
You've always got your head in the clouds





Oh Lately I've been wondering why
Why the hell you pass be by

Overall Meaning

Reemer's song "Clouds" is a song about someone who is always lost in their own thoughts and never really present in the moment. The singer is wondering why this person is always passing them by without really connecting with them. The repetition of the lyric "you've always got your head in the clouds" emphasizes this theme of disconnection, and the singer urges the person to slow down and be present with them. The line "It's clear you never ever came up against a bigger name" could suggest that this person is used to being the center of attention and perhaps struggles to connect with others who are not as impressive as they are. Overall, the song is a plea for connection and presence in a world where people are often distracted and disconnected.
