Clearest Blue Lyrics

Light is all over us
Like it always was
Like it always was
Shaped, by the clearest blue
But it's not enough
It's not enough, not enough

Just another time I'm caught inside
Every open eye
Holding on tightly to the sides
Never quite learning why
You'll meet me, you'll meet me
You'll meet me halfway

Whenever I feel it coming on
You can be well aware
If ever I try to push away
You can just keep me there
So please say you'll meet me
Meet me halfway

Tied, to the shifting ground
Like it always was
Like it always was
You, were the perfect storm
But it's not enough, it's not enough
Not enough, not enough

Just another time that I go down
But you are keeping up
Holding to a hope you'll undermine
Never to be reversed

Just another time I'm caught inside
Every open eye
Holding on tightly to the sides
Never quite learning why

Whenever I feel it coming on
You can be well aware
If ever I try to push away
You can just keep me, tell me

Tell me tell me, you'll meet me
Tell me tell me, you'll keep me
Tell me tell me, you'll meet me
Will you meet me more than halfway up?

Shaped by, clearest blue
Shaped by, clearest blue

Shaped (will you keep it half-a-way)
By, clearest blue (will you keep it half-a-way)
Shaped (will you keep it half-a-way)
By, clearest blue (will you keep it half-a-way)

in the lyrics, i think it's supposed to be "Shaped" by "Clearest blue" instead of "Shape by the clearest blue"

Translation
Cover art for Clearest Blue lyrics by CHVRCHES

Always thought it was "saved by clearest blue". Don't suppose it matters, since the meaning stays the same. Sounds like a person that often finds it very difficult to lose themselves (let go of their fears, hopes, goals whatever) long enough so that they can experience whoever or whatever they consider "divine". They sometines need their opposite, their muse, whatever you want to call it, to come get them and shake them lose of material concerns. Saved by the clearest blue, lifted out of the ordinary everyday into a reality where the persons real life happens.

Cover art for Clearest Blue lyrics by CHVRCHES

To me it’s about a relationship where you have to lean on your significant other more than they have to lean on you, the song is in recognition and gratitude for that.

Also, corrections “storm” not “star,” “shaped” not “shape,” “holding to a hope you’ll undermine,” “if ever I try to push away” (you is understood)

@Infidel901 I'm interested in your reasoning for this I definitely didnt think of it this way
