For me, the meaning of this song is similar to that of "All We Ever Look For"--see comments. However, it seems here that Kate's search here is for something more specific like the path to the Beatific Vision. Of course, I'm reading into this greatly; but that is part of the fun of listening to Kate's work. I remember reading once an interview in which Kate mentioned something about this song and the experience that one might have of looking up at the clouds and seeing God peeping through--"I thought I caught a glimpse of God all shiny and bright..." Also, this is one of my favorite Kate videos--who else would wear a straight-jacket/fencing outfit, dance around in a wind-tossed stable, and drift into outer space all in one promo? She's barking mad and brilliant! IMHO...
