Beyoncé Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I believe that harmonies are colors
Every time I paint it sharpens my harmony
Yesterday I tried to paint you
But the colors weren't beautiful enough
Your love goes beyond what I can say

Love
Beyoncé




Overall Meaning

In the lyrics of the song "Beyoncé Interlude," Beyoncé seems to be describing her experience with painting and how it relates to her understanding of music and love. She begins by stating that she believes that harmonies are like colors, which suggests that she sees a strong connection between visual art and music. She then goes on to say that every time she paints, it sharpens her harmony, suggesting that engaging in creative activities like painting can help her improve her musical abilities.


Next, Beyoncé describes how she tried to paint someone who she loves, but she found that the colors she used weren't beautiful enough. This could be interpreted as a metaphor for trying to express love through art, but finding that words and colors are not enough to fully capture the depth and intensity of that emotion. In the final line of the song, Beyoncé acknowledges that the love she feels for this person is beyond what she can express in either music or painting.


Overall, the lyrics of "Beyoncé Interlude" suggest a deep connection between different forms of art, and highlight the difficulty of capturing complex emotions like love through creative expression. Beyoncé's poetic language and use of metaphor add depth and richness to the song's meaning.
