Clover

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Say my love
When I fall
Will you be there to help me up
When I'm all I can be
Will it be enough
When its all in my reach
Will I let it slip
Or will I pick it up

If I take a right
I could make it there quicker
But if I don't take a left
Will I still end up with ya
Wasting all my time
At the fork in the road
If I don't decide
Then I'll lose it all
Every day I been
Looking for a four leaf clover
Not giving up
Maybe that's the reason that I never run
Outta luck
What's the point of waiting on a miracle
What's the point of waiting 'round on god to get your miracle
Every day I been
Looking for a four leaf clover
Not giving up
Maybe that's the reason that I never run
Outta luck
No
God won't save us
Too many open doors
I don't know which to take
What am I searching for
How do I find my way
Leaving a castle in the sand before I pass away
Even though I know that it's all about to wash away
If I take a right
I could make it there quicker
But if I don't take a left
Will I still end up with ya
Wasting all my time
At the fork in the road
If I don't decide
Then I'll lose it all
I gave my palm to a fortune teller
All she told me was that I'd be this way forever
Well I'ma try and squeeze these lemons into lemonade
And I'ma rip my fuckin' heart out for this serenade
Every day I been
Looking for a four leaf clover
Not giving up
Maybe that's the reason that I never run
Outta luck
What's the point of waiting on a miracle
What's the point of waiting 'round on god to get your miracle
Every day I been
Looking for a four leaf clover
Not giving up
Maybe that's the reason that I never run
Outta luck
No
God won't save us
If I take a right
I could make it there quicker
But if I don't take a left
Will I still end up with ya
Wasting all my time
At the fork in the road

If I don't decide
Then I'll lose it all

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "CLOVER" by ero808 explore themes of love, choices, and the pursuit of luck and miracles. The opening lines, "Say my love, when I fall, will you be there to help me up," suggest a vulnerability and a desire for support in times of hardship. The singer questions whether they will be enough on their own and if they will let opportunities slip away. The mention of taking different paths, such as "If I take a right, I could make it there quicker, but if I don't take a left, will I still end up with ya," reflects the uncertainty and hesitation in making important decisions.

The chorus emphasizes the ongoing search for luck, symbolized by the four-leaf clover. The singer refuses to give up, and this perseverance seems to be the reason they never run out of luck. They question the purpose of waiting for a miracle or relying on God's intervention, suggesting a belief in taking action and creating their own destiny.

The second verse further explores the singer's struggle in making choices, unsure of which doors to open and what they are searching for. The metaphor of a castle in the sand represents the impermanence of life and the inevitability of things being washed away. Despite this knowledge, the decision-making process remains challenging.

The bridge reveals the singer seeking guidance from a fortune teller, who offers little insight and suggests that their current state is likely to persist. Nevertheless, they express determination to turn their challenges into something positive, even if it means sacrificing their own emotions for the sake of a serenade.

Overall, "CLOVER" is a contemplative song that explores the complexities of decision-making, self-doubt, and the constant search for luck and miracles.
