Lyrics
Look at the stars
Expressing admiration and pointing out the stars as a symbol.
Look how they shine for you
Highlighting the brightness of the stars, metaphorically linking them to the listener.
And everything you do
Noting that everything the listener does is illuminated or special.
Yeah, they were all yellow
Describing a connection, where the special qualities are referred to as "yellow."
I came along
Describing personal involvement by writing a song for the listener.
I wrote a song for you
Reinforcing the act of creating something special for the listener.
And all the things you do
Highlighting appreciation for the listener's actions.
And it was called Yellow
Naming the song as "Yellow," indicating its significance.
So then I took my turn
Taking a turn, possibly in the relationship or life journey.
Oh, what a thing to have done
Reflecting on past actions, suggesting a sense of realization.
And it was all yellow
Recalling a significant time or phase described as "yellow."
Your skin, oh yeah, your skin and bones
Describing the physical attributes of the listener, emphasizing their beauty.
Turn into something beautiful
Expressing a transformation of the listener into something aesthetically pleasing.
And you know, you know I love you so
Affirming deep love for the listener.
You know I love you so
Reiterating profound love for the listener.
I swam across
Portraying a physical effort, like swimming, for the sake of the listener.
I jumped across for you
Describing a daring action, possibly symbolizing sacrifice.
Oh, what a thing to do
Reflecting on the significance of the performed action.
'Cause you were all yellow
Linking the listener to the color "yellow" again, emphasizing their importance.
I drew a line
Creating a symbolic boundary or commitment for the listener.
I drew a line for you
Emphasizing the importance of the drawn line for the listener.
Oh, what a thing to do
Reflecting on the significance of the drawn line.
And it was all yellow
Repeating the connection between the color "yellow" and significance.
And your skin, oh yeah, your skin and bones
Recalling the physical attributes of the listener and their transformation.
Turn into something beautiful

And you know, for you, I'd bleed myself dry
Expressing an extreme level of dedication and willingness to sacrifice for the listener.
For you, I'd bleed myself dry
