"For you I'd bleed myself dry"

My favorite song by Coldplay is Yellow from the album Parachutes. The denotations tell us that the song is about finding that person that you would do anything for. You would bleed yourself dry as Chris Martin says. I didn't understand why he talks about yellow so much. But I realized the conotation is that love makes him shine so it is yellow. His lover is shinning to thats why everything is yellow. He would do anything to see her shine.
I really liked this song at first because of the way it sounded, not the lyrics. But after deciphering the lyrics I like it even more. It is a great song and I feel that everyone can relate to it. There is/will be someone that you would do anything for. They make you feel good and you want to be with them all the time.
