Cloud 9
Serenade of Freedom: Robin Thicke's Cloud 9 Unveiled
Lyrics
Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah
Expressing enthusiasm or agreement.
Yeah yeah
Repetition for emphasis or rhythm.
Oh
An exclamation, possibly to convey emotion or anticipation.
No complaints
Contentment; no dissatisfaction.
No hour of need
No moments of urgent need or distress.
No no no
Repetition for emphasis, suggesting a clear negation.
I just wanna be free
Desire for freedom or liberation.
I'm just trying to get by
Striving to navigate life.
Don't you worry baby
Assurance to a loved one not to worry.
I'll be alright
Expressing confidence and reassurance.
I'm doing just fine
Positive affirmation of well-being.
Sittin' here livin' on cloud 9
Metaphorical reference to a state of bliss or happiness.
Livin' on cloud 9
Reiteration of living in a joyful state.
I'm doin just fine
Reaffirmation of personal contentment.
Livin' on cloud 9
Continued emphasis on living joyfully.
Ain't got no worries
No anxieties or concerns.
Ain't got no frets
Free from worries or distress.
Oh yeah
Expression of happiness or agreement.
Livin' on cloud 9
Reiteration of living in a state of bliss.
He thinks she's this
Perception of each other in a relationship.
And she thinks he's that
Mutual misperceptions or misunderstandings.
Delusional people
Labeling people as having unrealistic views.
Livin' life too fast
Living life at a fast pace without reflection.
So I'm takin' my time
Taking time to enjoy life.
Sittin' here livin' here on cloud 9
Continued reference to a blissful state.
Oh it ain't a fantasy yeah yeah
Clarifying that the state is not a mere fantasy.
I'm just sittin' here like a leaf up on a tree
Comparing oneself to a leaf on a tree; possibly feeling grounded.
Like a bird on a wire
Using metaphors to describe a relaxed state.
I'm just takin' my time
Continuing to take things slowly and enjoy life.
He's a dog
Metaphorical descriptions of individuals in a relationship.
She's a pussy cat
Characterizing individuals in a relationship.
Could'a ruled the world
Reference to missed opportunities or unfulfilled potential.
And stuff like that
Mentions of what could have been achieved.
Never enters my mind
Emphasizing a lack of concern for missed opportunities.
Sittin' here livin' on cloud 9
Reiteration of living in a blissful state.
Oh livin' on cloud 9 baby
Reaffirmation of the joyful state.
So if you ever get down
Offering support to someone feeling down.
Oh come and sit down right here next to me
Inviting someone to share the positive experience.
I'll be waitin' for you
Waiting for others to join in the joyful state.
Livin' on cloud 9
Reiteration of living in a state of bliss.
Oh yeah
Expression of happiness or agreement.
Livin' on cloud 9
Continued affirmation of living joyfully.
Oh yeah
Final expression of happiness or agreement.
