Just Like Heaven Lyrics

Show me how you do that trick
The one that makes me scream she said
The one that makes me laugh she said
And threw her arms around my neck
Show me how you do it
And I promise you I promise that
I’ll run away with you
I’ll run away with...

   I always felt this song was about two people in love dancing on the side of a cliff with the ocean rouring below them and as they dance they become closer and closer to falling off the edge, but they continue to dance anyway. The man wakes the next day to find the girl has fallen off the edge and has been consumed by the ocean. The ocean is like a monster that has taken his love away from him and drown her memory inside of him.

   I would say this is the ULTIMATE love song that has ever been put out. It's miles above 'lovesong' that people will go on and on about. It's about that one true love and how you have a million ways to make them glow. It's true inspiration to me.

   This is about a dreamy day near the seashore with a loved one. Lead singer Robert Smith was brought up in the town of Crawley in Southeast England, which is about 40 miles from Beachy Head (a cliff and notorious suicide hotspot).
   
   The song is about his wife, then girlfriend.... he had been dating her since he was fifteen... and while he admits the song, and the video are based on real-life occurances, he DID make up the part about meeting Marry at beachy head...
   
   The video featured a cameo by Robert Smith's then girlfriend and soon-to-be wife, Mary.
