One Direction – Clouds lyrics
[Verse 1: Harry Styles]
I know you say
That you don't like it complicated
That we should try to keep it simple
But love is never ever simple, no


[Verse 2: Louis Tomlinson]
Someday, you're gonna see the things that I see
You're gonna want the air that I breathe
You're gonna wish you never left me


[Chorus: ]
Here we go again
Another go-round for all of my friends
Another non-stop, will it ever end
Here we go again
Another go-round for all of my friends
Another non-stop, will it never end
We're never coming back down
Yeah, we're looking down on the clouds


[Verse 3: Liam Payne]
I know you said, that you don't like it complicated
That you are tired of all the changes
Well love is always, always changing, oh


[Verse 4: Zayn Malik]
Someday, you're gonna see the things that I see
You're gonna want the air that I breathe
You're gonna wish you never left me


[Chorus:]
Here we go again
Another go-round for all of my friends
Another non-stop, will it ever end

Here we go again
Another go-round for all of my friends
Another non-stop, will it never end
We're never coming back down
Yeah, we're looking down on the clouds


[Bridge: Niall Horan x2]
And we go, and we go, and we go
And we don't stop
But we don't, no we don't
No we don't ever grow up

[Outro: All Members x3]
Here we go again
Another go-round for all of my friends
Another non-stop will it ever end

    This song is about a relationship that went wrong. And the boys are explaining that because their partners wanted a noncomplicated relationship it was doomed to end because of their jobs. But because of all the peer-pressure from the friends the boys end up getting back together with their old partners. They become part of an on again off again relationship and are elated for a little while and are "high" because of how happy they are that they feel they are looking down from the clouds. But then things get complicated which their partners don't want and they break up again.

    I think this is about a relationship gone wrong and they break up. This song is also from the boy's P.O.V. He is saying that he will never take her back because she will and he will be higher than her. (I'm just reading between the lines here and giving this a try so don't blame me if this is completely wrong :))

    I think it means for the boys girlfriends its very complicated daring them because they would get so much hate and they want it to be easy but being with them isn't gonna be easy as for any other famous person because there are people who hate on the the ones we love, I also think that it means on the part where it says you're gonna want the air that I breath means that they're gonna miss the time with them and that they never stop and having fun. To me they're are various meanings to this song and its one of my favorites on the album, because of sound and lyrics.
