Song lyrics
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've done
And it was all yellow

Your skin
Oh yeah your skin and bones
Turn into something beautiful
And 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
Cuz 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
And 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

the song is about him donating blood for his mom, who had turned yellow with jaundice... thats where the drawing a line comes from, and the yellow is quite obvious

Yellow is to drugs as Puff the Magic Dragon is to drugs - maybe, but so what? In its non-chemical meaning it is a wonderfully rendered, exuberant love song. Reminds me of a poem I read years ago equating bringing electrical power to the Tennessee Valley to how the author felt about his new love, and how he wished to tell everyone about it.

Hey, sup everyone? I absolutely love this song . . . in a way I get it, but I don't get the stuff about drawing a line . . . in some ways ya it could be about drugs, but really so could ANY song... It's a great song tho, especially because yellow is my ABSOLUTE favorite color!!! And when I found out about this song I was SOOOOO happy cuz i mean, its called yellow! Ok, enough with my lil mini life story

so ya....buhbyez i guess

I love this song with all my heart.
This is my fave:

"Look at the stars
Look how they shine for you
And everything you do
yeah, they were all yellow"


I always smile when I hear this song.

I dont think its refering to drugs but u know I guess it all depends on personal opinion! [offtopic] I like the song Lucy In The Shy With Dimonds by the beatles about LST hehe I think its a really funny song lol (thinking about drugs is why that came to mind lol ... dont ask)
