OK Jacki says:from CarlySimon.com:
Can you tell me what the meaning of the phrase “clouds in my coffee” has in the context of your song “You’re So Vain”? I can’t quite pin down the metaphor. What are the “clouds” in your coffee? Samantha – Dearborn, MI
“Clouds in my coffee” are the confusing aspects of life and love. That which you can’t see through, and yet seems alluring…until. Like a mirage that turns into a dry patch. Perhaps there is something in the bottom of the coffee cup that you could read if you could (like tea leaves or coffee grinds). Carly Simon 5/17/01

Eeka Mouse says:This Pick is just gorgeous, Toad! The phrase ‘clouds in my coffee’ has always reminded me of when I was a little girl and my grandmother let me add the milk to her coffee ‘just until it starts to rise’. The swirls of milk reminded me of clouds.

Atomic Toad says:Yes, and “clouds” sounds more poetic and mysterious than “milk in my coffee.” Thanks for the sweet comment, Mouse.
