Symphony
Glasgow Festival Chorus And Orchestra Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Symphony
Symphony of love
Music from above
How does it start?
You walk in
And the song begins
Singing violins start in my heart
Then you speak

The melody seems to rise
Then you sigh
It sighs, and it softly dies
Symphony
Sing to me
Then we kiss
And it's clear to me
When you're near to me

You are my symphony
My symphony

Overall Meaning

The song "Symphony" by Glasgow Festival Chorus And Orchestra is a beautiful ode to love that compares it to the harmonious sounds of a symphony. The lyrics describe how the music of love begins when the person you love walks in, and how it is like listening to the beautiful sound of singing violins. The melody of the song seems to rise when the person speaks, and then sigh and softly die when they sigh. However, when the two people kiss, it becomes clear to the singer that the person they are kissing is their symphony, the music of their life.

This beautiful song showcases how love can be like a beautiful melody that fills one's heart and soul. It is interesting to note that the song uses the metaphor of a symphony to describe love, highlighting the power of music in expressing complex emotions. The use of violins in the song is particularly noteworthy as it is often seen as the most romantic and emotional instrument in an orchestra. The song also shows how music can be used to describe abstract emotions and concepts that are difficult to express in words.
