The Lumineers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The one that makes me scream" she said
"The one that makes me laugh" she said
And threw her arms around my neck
Show me how you do it
And I promise you I promise that
I'll run away with you
Spinning on that dizzy edge
I kissed her face and kissed her head
And dreamed of all the different ways I had
To make her glow
Why are you so far away, she said
Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you
That I'm in love with you
You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Strange as angels
Dancing in the deepest oceans
Twisting in the water
You're just like a dream
You're just like a dream
Daylight licked me into shape
I must have been asleep for days
And moving lips to breathe her name
I opened up my eyes
Found myself alone, alone
Alone above a raging sea
That stole the only girl I loved
And drowned her deep inside of me
You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
You're just like heaven
The Lumineers's song "Just Like Heaven" is a cover of the original song released by The Cure in 1987. The song is about a person who longs to be with someone they love and the feeling of being lost and alone without them. The lyrics have a dream-like quality to them with themes of longing, desperation, and affection.
The song starts with a girl asking the person she's with to show her a trick that makes her scream and laugh. She throws her arms around his neck and asks him to run away with her. The chorus has a sense of delusion and obsession, as the singer desires to be with this person who makes them feel "soft and only", "lost and lonely", and "strange as angels."
The second verse has the singer kissing the girl and dreaming of all the different ways to make her glow. The girl wonders why he's so far away and doesn't realize that she's in love with him. The final verse has a darker tone as the singer realizes that he's alone above a raging sea, symbolizing the loss of the girl who had drowned deep inside of him.
Overall, the song portrays the complexities of love and the struggle to express one's feelings. The dream-like lyrics add to the melancholic and emotional themes that The Cure is known for.
Line by Line Meaning
Show me how you do that trick
Teach me how to captivate you the way you captivate me
The one that makes me scream" she said
The kind of trick that makes me emotionally vulnerable to you
"The one that makes me laugh" she said
The kind of trick that makes me happy and carefree
And threw her arms around my neck
And embraced me tightly with a sense of excitement
Spinning on that dizzy edge
Being high up and dizzy with excitement
I kissed her face and kissed her head
I showed her my affection and care by kissing her
And dreamed of all the different ways I had
Imagined how I could make her feel special in various ways
To make her glow
To make her happy and radiant
Why are you so far away, she said
Why do you seem emotionally distant?
Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you
Why can't you tell that I love you?
You
The person I love
Soft and only
Gentle and unique
You
The person I love
Lost and lonely
Seemingly lost and searching for companionship
You
The person I love
Strange as angels
Mysterious and ethereal like angels
Dancing in the deepest oceans
Embodying freedom and joy, moving with fluidity
Twisting in the water
Imagining an otherworldly dreamlike space
You're just like a dream
You seem too good to be true, like a dream come to life
Daylight licked me into shape
The light of day helped me regain my composure and focus
I must have been asleep for days
I was so lost in my thoughts and feelings that time seemed to disappear
And moving lips to breathe her name
Whispering her name as if she were there with me
I opened up my eyes
Returning to reality and becoming more grounded
Found myself alone, alone
Realizing that I'm still alone and missing her
Alone above a raging sea
Overwhelmed by my emotions
That stole the only girl I loved
Feeling as though I've lost the person I love
And drowned her deep inside of me
Feeling heavy with the weight of my emotions
You're just like heaven
You bring a sense of bliss and happiness like heaven would

"Show me how you do it, and I promise you
I promise that I'll run away with you

I kissed her face and kissed her head
I dreamed of all the different ways I had to make her glow
"Why are you so far away?", she said
"Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you?
That I'm in love with you?"
You, soft and only
You, lost and lonely
You, strange as angels
Dancing in the deepest oceans
Twisting in the water
You're just like a dream

This is my favorite song 🤍😭 praying for someone to share it with but I wrote this a while ago, kinda aligns
HEAVEN
IS the door
You are behind every time
If you’re not behind it, it’s not Heaven
And I’ll wander through time and space searching for you until I don’t know what I’m searching for any more and if I’m lucky I’ll find you and I’ll remember and I’ll never let go of HEAVEN
And you will be my trip around the stars and I will be yours 💫

My husband and I met on a blind date, a long, loooong yime ago. I remember this song played as he pretended to do circus style magic tricks, replete with the musical accompaniment, with me laughing so hard that tears squeezed out the corners of my eyes. We would say sometimes that it really was just like heaven, how we filled the holes inside that neither of us knew we had. It's been almost 20 years since that grubby little dive bar, and listening to this took me right back there.
@CRFSUIGENERIS
What a wonderful romantic memory! I fell hard for someone who did magic tricks as well. I used to ask him to entertain my friends in college in our dorm. People laugh, but I found the tricks charming. One of my favorite times in my life. It didn’t work out, but I can relate to that lyric in the song ;) Happy you found a special guy! To more love and health for you both in another 20 yrs! Take care and thanks for the story!
@kidc2004
The girl who introduced me to this song used to beat me. The og singer of this song.. I wish I could share with him too. Kinda crazy the way we interpret our realities.. And song.
@semi-trad-kind-of-wife
Thinking of the lyrics from that perspective... it changes everything about the interpretation.
I hope your heart has healed from your ordeal, no one should have to go through that.
@kidc2004
@@semi-trad-kind-of-wife I feel like that is what makes the song. All of them!
