Kaleidoscope Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Brow
Look once and then you'll know she was not very loud
Touch her eyes and feel the shadows growing on her
Face
Take seconds to catch your breath before you slow the
Pace
Your knowledge is wasted here, for love there's always
Time
Reach out for emptiness as she crowds you from the
Room
Let falling tears paint your face but don't do it too
Soon
Take time for annie
She would love to see your face
Be kind for annie
Spread out a little place
Come, all ye non-believers, break the bread and drink
The wine
Give her your baited breath, for love there's always
Time
Fall down around her feet, let her walk upon your
Hands
Let your tears be like a sea, do everything you can
Take time for annie
She would love to see your face
Be kind for annie
Spread out a little place
Listen
But forever is a time you'll never know
Come, all ye non-believers, break the bread and drink
The wine
Give her your baited breath, for love there's always
Time
Fall down around her feet, let her walk upon your
Hands
Let your tears be like a sea, do everything you can

The song invites "non-believers" to come forward and feel the creases on Annie's brow, signifying her experiences and hardships. The lyrics suggest that one can only truly understand and appreciate Annie by looking beyond her appearance and listening to her story. The lines, "Your knowledge is wasted here, for love there's always time" highlight the importance of empathy and emotional connection over intellectual understanding.
Throughout the song, the lyrics urge the listener to take time for Annie, to be kind to her and to make space for her in their lives. The repetition of the phrase "do everything you can" emphasizes the importance of showing love through word and deed. The lines, "But forever is a time you'll never know" emphasize the fleeting nature of life and the importance of cherishing the time one has with loved ones.
