Three Kites
Three Kites: A Colorful Tale of Love and Loss
Lyrics
Afternoons with you
Reflecting on shared afternoons with someone special.
Felt too cool to be blue
Those moments felt exceptionally positive, preventing feelings of sadness.
I almost washed my mind
Contemplating a mental cleanse or renewal.
With the color of your eyes
Associating mental cleansing with the captivating color of the person's eyes.
And every jewel on the earth
Comparing the person's radiance to the unmatched brilliance of Earth's jewels.
Didn't match the shine in her
Highlighting the person's exceptional shine in comparison to precious gems.
Now it seems you gleam
Observing that the person now appears to shine even more brightly.
A brighter sheen
Noticing an enhanced and brighter aura around the person.
Oh
Expressing awe or admiration.
Heaven must miss you
Suggesting that the person is missed by heaven, emphasizing their positive qualities.
And how lucky am I?
Feeling fortunate to have the person in one's life.
Oh If I had a redo
Expressing a desire for a chance to start over.
Honey
Using endearment ("Honey") to address the person.
I'd own three kites
Imagining a scenario where the speaker would have three kites if given another chance.
I'd say I lost my hue
Expressing a loss of vibrancy or color in life.
When she said see you soon
Referring to a parting moment and its impact on emotions.
And then 12 months past
Noting the passage of time, specifically a year without lasting happiness.
Through a summer that didn't lasts
Recalling a fleeting summer that failed to bring lasting joy.
And every song I sang
Highlighting the significance of songs sung for the person.
In her ears would ring
Emphasizing the impact of music on the person.
Now its done and gone and won't be long
Accepting the conclusion of a past relationship, acknowledging its inevitability.
Oh
Reiterating the idea that heaven must feel the absence of the person.
Heaven must miss you
Expressing gratitude for having the person in one's life.
And how lucky am I?
Reiterating the desire for a chance to redo and appreciate the person more.
Oh if I had a redo
Expressing a wish for a second opportunity to make things right.
Honey
Using endearment ("Honey") again to address the person.
I'd own three kites
Reiterating the desire for a hypothetical possession (three kites) in a different scenario.
