You know I love You So.

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 time, Oh what a thing to've done and it was all yellow.

Your skin, oh yeah, your skin and bones. Turn into something beautiful, d'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, d'you know? For you I bleed myself dry, for you I 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..

This is one of the most beautiful songs ever written, and it is one of my favorites, for so many reasons. This song reminds me of a perfect night in 2007, with the perfect person. We were at my friend's for a house party, everybody was on a buzz, intoxicated with the liquor flowing through their body dancing around to the music blasting on the stereo. The night started off so hectic, but it ended so peacefully, so perfectly. I wouldn't change a thing about that night, it had it flaws, but that is exactly what made it as perfect as it was. The night ended with this song playing on repeat, we were alone in the room looking out the window into the darkness up at the star littered sky. All the noise from upstairs disappeared, and it was just us, alone together, with Yellow playing. We were in our own world, this beautiful place, just for us, and it just so happened that the word's of the song applied to us, how we felt for each other. So, we stayed up all night, in that messy room, with the smell of strawberry in the air, lying in the bed, enjoying the music and taking in every moment. It was the song we fell asleep too under the covers, our bodies intwined into each other's, with our hands laced, knowing that this night would never compare to another, nor would the love. It was magical, not in the fairy-tale sense, but the magic and beauty life offers you ever now and then. It was simple. I'm almost certain nobody else would call this a perfect night, there was no romantic setting, we were sleeping in my friend's brothers bed, there were drunk people knocking on the door and we recovering from the party as well, but it was euphoric. There is no other word to describe it.

Even now when I look back at that night, it makes me smile and it makes me laugh and given the chance to change it, I wouldn't because I didn't want what they show in the movies, I wanted reality for all that it was worth, and I got it and to me, it was perfect. A beautiful night with a beautiful person, what more could possibly you ask for?
