A Song For Kate
Sky's The Limit Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We breathe the same air
You should have been there
You would have seen the way her eyes danced
And when the moon it hits the water
It shines in the same way
We need a change
If you give me a chance we could fly away
Far away from this place
I know we can be
We tend to agree
It makes more sense to do it this way with integrity
I want to break this
I want to break this
We need to change
If we give it to him




He could take it away
Don't you want it erased

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "A Song for Kate" by Sky's The Limit depicts a dedication to a special person named Kate. The first line, "We breathe the same air" suggests that the singer and Kate are connected in some way, perhaps emotionally or geographically. The second line, "You should have been there" implies that Kate was not present at a particular moment. However, the singer emphasizes that if she were present, she would have seen how her eyes danced. This metaphor suggests that Kate's presence would have made a positive impact.


The third and fourth lines relate to the night sky and the moon reflecting on the water, a beautiful and natural view. This image conveys the sense that the singer and Kate share a sense of beauty and wonder. With the lines, "We need a change. If you give me a chance we could fly away," the singer suggests that they need to leave their current situation and find something new. The song presents a sense of hope that they could both move away from their current struggles to someplace better, far from this place.


In the end, the lyric, "Don't you want it erased," seems to signify that something is being lost or forgotten. Maybe the singer would like to forget their troubles or a painful memory, and the line serves as a call to move forward.
