Lyrics
Yellow
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you,
And all the things you do,
Yeah, they were all yellow.
I came along,
I wrote a song for you,
And everything you do,
And it was called Yellow.
So then I took my turn,
Oh what a thing to've done,
And it was all Yellow.
Your skin
Oh yeah, your skin and bones,
Turn into something beautiful,
Do you know?
You know I love you so,
You know I love you so.
I swam across,
I jumped across for you,
Oh what a thing to do.
'Cos you were all yellow,
I drew a line,
I drew a line for you,
Oh what a thing to do,
And it was all yellow.
Your skin,
Oh yeah your skin and bones,
Turn into something beautiful,
Do you know?
For you I'd bleed myself dry,
For you I'd bleed myself dry.
It's true, look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine for...
Look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine...
Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you,
And all the things that you do.
