Catch Me
Yellow Claw Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Are you still living in that place?
They told me you've been doing okay, okay
In another world where you and me
We show our hearts, yeah, entirely
Deliver me from reality
And take me to my fantasy
Tell me we can make this real
If we can follow what we feel
I'm running but I've reached the edge
And now I'm falling, so promise that you'll catch me
Promise that you'll catch me
Dreams, forever in my head
It seems, I finally know what they mean
I promise that one day you'll see, you'll see
In another world where you and me
We show our hearts, yeah, entirely
Deliver me from reality
And take me to my fantasy
Tell me we can make this real
If we can follow what we feel
I'm running but I've reached the edge
And now I'm falling, so promise that you'll catch me
Promise that you'll catch me
Promise that you'll catch me
The lyrics of Catch Me by Yellow Claw speaks about a longing for a perfect world where two people can show their hearts completely without fear. The first verse starts with the mention of a possible physical change in the person the singer is addressing. The singer then asks if the person is still living in the same place and reveals that they had heard that the person has been doing okay. However, the focus is on an alternate world where the two of them could be together and love without any apprehensions. The singer wants to be delivered from reality and taken to their fantasy world.
The second verse speaks about dreams that have been forever in the singer's head and how they have finally understood their meaning. The promise that the singer makes is that someday the person they are addressing will be able to see and understand what they mean. The chorus then repeats the desire to be caught while falling and promises that the person the singer is addressing will catch them.
