Lyrics
you’ll drift on rings around the sun
You will move gracefully in orbits around the sun.
i’ll steal the bottle tops one by one
I will collect bottle caps one by one.
there’s always so much left to be done
There is always a lot more to accomplish.
for the only world i dream of
Referring to the ideal world the singer dreams of.
you saw, you saw the fire at night
You witnessed the fire during the night.
you know the greatest part of life
Highlighting that being observed is a significant aspect of life.
is to be seen by your ultraviolet eye
The joy of being seen through a unique perspective, possibly metaphorical as an "ultraviolet eye."
to be seen, i built a house in blue
To gain visibility, the singer constructed a metaphorical house in blue.
all in blue, all over you
Everything immersed in blue, emphasizing a strong connection.
heart in bloom, all over you
The heart is blossoming, spreading all over.
in the arms of all i’ve tried to keep
In the embrace of those the singer tried to hold close.
i’ll swell and shrink like a heartbeat
The singer's emotions fluctuate, resembling a heartbeat.
even when we’re dead and buried
Even in death, there's a possibility of transcending barriers.
we can slip through the stones like thieves
A metaphorical ability to move unnoticed, similar to thieves through stones.
we can hide in the garden leaves
Another metaphor, this time about hiding in the foliage.
we can sail through your arteries
The potential to navigate through the singer's emotions and experiences.
i can be anything you believe
The singer expresses adaptability, being whatever is believed or needed.
we can go anywhere we please
Freedom to go anywhere as desired.
