Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
See people go
This particular timing is extra special
I know you might be gone
And the world may not know
Still, I see you celestial
Like a lion you ran
Like an eagle, you circle
Perfect of all
So how come things move on?
How come cars don’t slow?
When it feels like the end of the world
When I should but I can’t let you go
But when I’m cold, cold
When I’m cold, cold
There’s a light that you give me
When I’m in shadows
There’s a feeling of ever, everglow
We’re brothers in that
The sisters you write
When we stroll on like that
Be friends ‘til we die
With the changing of winds
And the way waters flow
Life is shortest in fall, in the snow
I know I’m going to miss you, I know
But when I’m cold, cold
Yeah, all alone, the sun
And I know that you’re with me
And the way you will show, when you’re with me wherever I go
But you give me this feeling, it’s everglow
What I wouldn't give for this moment to hold
Yeah, I live for this feeling, it’s everglow
So if you love someone, you should let them know
Oh, the light that you left me will everglow
The lyrics to Coldplay's Everglow are very emotional and meaningful. The first verse speaks about the passage of time and the people who come and go in our lives. The timing of certain moments, however, is extra special and can leave lasting impressions on us. The singer acknowledges that someone important to them may be gone, but they still see them as celestial, or heavenly. The second verse compares the person to powerful animals like a lion and an eagle, with their strength and grace. The chorus expresses the singer's struggle with letting go of this person who has left their life, but also acknowledges the light that they still bring in the shadows. The bridge of the song touches on the idea that life is short and the changing of seasons can bring a sense of loss and longing. The singer knows they will miss this person, but the feeling they left behind - the everglow - will always remain.
One interesting fact about the song is that it was actually inspired by a text message from Chris Martin's ex-wife Gwyneth Paltrow. According to Martin, the song is about "a relationship's enduring spark" and was written specifically for Paltrow. The song features backing vocals from Norwegian singer-songwriter, Ina Wroldsen. The acoustic version of the song, released as a single, was included in the soundtrack for the film Collateral Beauty. The song has been performed live on many occasions, often with Martin alone on piano. It was also included in Coldplay's 2017 documentary, A Head Full of Dreams, which chronicles their rise to fame and features footage from their live performances.
Another interesting fact about the song is that it was originally intended to be included on Coldplay's album A Head Full of Dreams, but was ultimately cut due to time constraints. However, Martin decided to finish the song and release it as a standalone single. The song has been positively received by critics and fans alike, with many praising the emotional depth and sincerity of the lyrics. Some have compared the song to Coldplay's earlier work, which was more acoustic-based and intimate. The music video for the song features Martin singing at a piano, with footage of past Coldplay concerts and some personal home movies mixed in.

Line by Line Meaning
We see people coming
We observe individuals arriving
See people go
We witness people departing
This particular timing is extra special
This moment is noteworthy and unique
I know you might be gone
I understand you may have left
And the world may not know
The world may not be aware
Still, I see you celestial
However, I view you as heavenly
Like a lion you ran
You once ran like a lion
Goddess, he wrote
Someone wrote about you as a goddess
Like an eagle, you circle
You move in circles like an eagle
Perfect of all
You were the epitome of perfection
So how come things move on?
Why do things continue to progress?
How come cars don’t slow?
Why don't vehicles decelerate?
When it feels like the end of the world
During times that seem like the apocalypse
When I should but I can’t let you go
When I ought to, but can't release you
But when I’m cold, cold
However, when I am frigid
There’s a light that you give me
You provide me with a source of illumination
When I’m in shadows
During times when I am obscured
There’s a feeling of ever, everglow
I experience an enduring feeling of brightness
We’re brothers in that
We share that bond
The sisters you write
The words you write about women
When we stroll on like that
As we amble in this way
Be friends ‘til we die
Let’s remain friends until we pass away
With the changing of winds
As the wind changes direction
And the way waters flow
And the way water cascades
Life is shortest in fall, in the snow
Life appears to be briefest during autumn and winter
I know I’m going to miss you, I know
I am aware that I will miss you greatly
Yeah, all alone, the sun
When I am alone, the sun shines
And I know that you’re with me
I am aware that you are with me
And the way you will show, when you’re with me wherever I go
And how you present yourself, when you are with me wherever I travel
But you give me this feeling, it’s everglow
Still, you provide me with this sensation, which lasts
What I wouldn't give for this moment to hold
I would do anything to preserve this moment
Yeah, I live for this feeling, it’s everglow
Yes, I exist for this sensation, always shining
So if you love someone, you should let them know
Therefore, if you love someone, you should communicate it to them
Oh, the light that you left me will everglow
The light that you left me will endure and shine brightly

Coldplay - Everglow (Lyrics)
Oh, they say people come, say people go
This particular diamond was extra special
And though you might be gone, and the world may not know
Still I see you, celestial
And I should, but I can’t let you go
But when I’m cold, cold
When I’m cold, cold
There’s a light that you give me when I’m in shadow
There’s a feeling within me, everglow
Like brothers in blood, sisters who ride
Ye' we swore on that night we’d be friends 'til we die
But the changing of winds, and the way waters flow
Life is short as the falling of snow
And now, I’m gonna miss you, I know
But when I’m cold, cold
In water rolled, salt
And I know you’re always with me and the way you will show
And you’re with me wherever I go
And you give me this feeling, this everglow
Oh, what I wouldn't give for just a moment to hold
Yeah, I live for this feeling, this everglow
So if you love someone, you should let them know
Oh, the light that you left me will everglow
[Spoken-Word Outro: Muhammad Ali:]
God is watching me
God don't praise me because I beat Joe Frazier
God don't give nothing about Joe Frazier
God don't care nothing about England or America as far as real wealth… it's all His
He wants to know how do we treat each other?
How do we help each other?
So, I'm going to dedicate my life to using my name and popularity to helping charities, helping people, uniting people
People bombing each other because of religious beliefs
We need somebody in the world to help us all make peace
So when I die – if there's a heaven – I'm gonna see it

Yesterday I had to bury my partner after 12 years of relationship. He died in a plane crash and was the love of my life, my soulmate and best friend. We both loved Coldplay and went to their concerts together a lot. This song was played at his funeral and it touches me so much. "... this particular diamond was extra special. And though you might be gone, and the world may not know. Still I see you, celestial. And I should but I can't let you go ...". I miss you so much. Rest in peace!
