from a different perspective...

I can't take credit for the perspective I'm wanting to share, but share it, I shall!  I have begun to develop a different, newer love for music and all its meanings.  One can only assume a meaning if it is not obvious to the listener.  However, based on some minute researching, I've come to know that my interpretation of this song by the band, Coldplay, is not entirely off kilter. 
During my Junior year of Bible school, a Freshman called me out and wanted to encourage me.  She said one day she was listening to her music on shuffle and said to God, "God, choose the next song."  The song that came on was "Yellow" by Coldplay.  She told me to listen to the song in a perspective I'd not thought of.  My first impression of the song before being told to listen to it from a new angle was, "I'm not really sure what this song means, but it has a cool beat!"  She said, "Listen to the words carefully and think of it as God singing to you."
Here are the lyrics to "Yellow" by Coldplay

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,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.
