A Sky Full Of Stars - Coldplay ft. Avicii
by Simon Cleary
Official Video: Chris Martin and the band walk the busy streets of a city singing A Sky Full Of Stars; reminding everyone that there is still plenty of beauty left in the world, hidden right behind the mundane things we experience every day, if we only have the eyes to see it.
The Experience: Coldplay's Chris Martin sees his love in the perfection of a sky full of stars, such a heavenly view. From the beauty of nature, he turns and promises "I want to die in your arms" "I'm going to give you my heart." Songs like this and Magic make for a promising Coldplay comeback.
The meaning of Coldplay A Sky Full Of Stars is when everything beautiful reminds you of love, and love makes you see everything as beautiful. At first, Chris describes his love with starlight "you're a sky... you light up the path... tear me apart, I don't care if you do." As long as he has her beauty, that's enough. Then he sings that starlight reminds him of her, "In a sky full of stars I think I saw you... you get lighter the more it gets dark." From this "heavenly view" Chris promises to remain with beauty all life long - "I want to die in your arms."
Ask Yourself: What do you see in the stars? (When was the last time you saw a heavenly view?)
LYRICS:
Cause you're a sky
A sky full of stars
I'm going to give you my heart
Cause you're cause a sky
A sky full of stars
And cause you light up the path
I don't care
Go on and tear me apart
I don't care if you do
Cause in a sky, a sky full of stars
I think I saw you
Cause you're a sky
A sky full of stars
I want to die in your arms
Cause you get lighter
the more it gets dark
I'm going to give you my heart
And I don't care
Go on and tear me apart
I don't care if you do
Cause in a sky, a sky full of stars
I think I see you
I think I see you
Because you're a sky
You're a sky full of stars
Such a heavenly view
Such a heavenly view
A sky full of stars
I'm going to give you my heart
Cause you're cause a sky
A sky full of stars
And cause you light up the path
I don't care
Go on and tear me apart
I don't care if you do
Cause in a sky, a sky full of stars
I think I saw you
Cause you're a sky
A sky full of stars
I want to die in your arms
Cause you get lighter
the more it gets dark
I'm going to give you my heart
And I don't care
Go on and tear me apart
I don't care if you do
Cause in a sky, a sky full of stars
I think I see you
I think I see you
Because you're a sky
You're a sky full of stars
Such a heavenly view
Such a heavenly view
