Lights Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When your true lover comes your way
It's cherry pink and apple blossom white
The poets say
The story goes that once a cherry tree
Beside an apple tree did grow
And there a boy once met his bride to be
The boy looked into her eyes, it was a sight to enthrall
The breezes joined in their sighs, the blossoms started to fall
And as they gently carressed, the lovers looked up to find
The branches of the two trees were intertwined,
And that is why the poets always write
If there's a new moon bright above
It's cherry pink and apple blossom white
When you're in love
The lyrics of Lights's song White are a reinterpretation of a classic love song from the 1950s titled "Cherry Pink and Apple Blossom White". The song speaks of the beauty and purity of true love, using the imagery of cherry blossoms and apple blossoms as symbols of the newfound romance.
The song tells the story of two lovers who meet under the cherry tree and apple tree. The blossoms fall as they begin to fall in love, and the two trees' branches intertwine. This image symbolizes the union of two people in love, and the strength of their connection.
The lyrics also allude to a cultural belief that when there is a new moon shining bright in the sky, it is a sign of good luck and fortune for those in love. This reinforces the idea of the power of love and its ability to bring happiness and positivity into one's life.
