this is the story of my favourite song

Look at the stars,

Look how they shine for you,

And everything you do,

Yeah, they were all yellow.

I came along,

I wrote a song for you,

And all the things you do,

And it was called "Yellow".

So then I took my turn,

Oh what a thing to have 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.

'Cause 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.

for some reason i think that is the most romantic song ever. as i note that my favourite line is 'for you i'd bleed myself dry. i think, that is lovely and horrific at the same time. and as much as i would like someone to sing this to me one day, i think there would be none. there would be no one, really, in this entire universe that would literally bleed himself dry for me, except Jesus.

it sounds funny that how secular song, can actually remind me so much about God. how He put those stars in the sky for us, how He would go all the way to get to us. so much love, so much love.
