From carlysimon.com:

"What does Clouds In My Coffee mean?

Carly Simon was traveling with a friend on an airplane, when he pointed to her cup and said "Look, there are clouds in your coffee" (a reflection of the sky outside her window). She liked the phrase and wrote in her notebook. Later, when she was writing the song You're So Vain, she used that reference to an "illusion" to describe her dreams of having a relationship with the subject of the song.

But you gave away the things you loved and one of them was me
I had some dreams they were clouds in my coffee, clouds in my coffee and....
"

I dunno what the dick any of that has to do with Martin Freeman, though.

So OP has a weird crush on that actor/character but realizes that it's all in her/his head?

o_0...

I always assumed it was creamer and it was a reference to reading some kind of fortune from it, sort of like how you read tea leaves.

Um.

Obviously I was off base.

Me too - totally. Like, when you pour the creamer in your coffee but don't stir it, at first it makes clouds. Hm. :|

If it makes you feel better, I thought something along those lines too, haha.

THANK YOU! No really, thank you. Not knowing bothered me.

....I thought it was some sort of obscure reference to the not-really-Devil's-Foot-at-all-because-I-don't-believe-ACD-wrote-Holmes-as-a-SOCIOPATH-and-Holmes-would-never-POISON-Watson-to-see-what-would-happen...atrocity...from BASK?

So, yeah, thanks for the explanation!

Thank you for the explanation! I seriously couldn't understand the sentence at all and it was starting to bother me. Now I feel better for knowing what it means. :)

Thanks for that, I never got it either. I know the song is about Warren Beatty, but that's about it.
