Ambient in the opening can be heard American-German poet Charles Bukowski, asked his definition of love.
Bukowski responds, “love is a fog that burns with the first daylight of reality.”
Yellow Days pushes against Bukowski’s depiction of fleeting love, claiming he’s here to stay.
[Intro]
"What's your definition of love?"
"Love, it's kinda like, you know, when you see a fog in the morning when you wake up, before the sun comes out. It's just for a little while, and then it burns away..."
[Verse 1]
Broken by love
This hurt divides itself
Decided that kissing you is just bad for my health
[Bridge]
So I'm gonna ride
I'm going the other way
I would've told you why

[Chorus]
Oh don't you see it now?
I'm staying for a little while

I'm staying for a little while
[Bridge]
So I'm gonna ride
I'm going the other way
I would've told you why
If there was any space for me
To say, to say
[Chorus]
Oh don't you see it now?
I'm staying for a little while
Oh don't you see it now?
I'm staying for a little while
