This album is strictly dedicated to 12 and 13 step programs, to quit drugs. like rehab and narcotics anonymous and alcoholics anonymous. You can interpret the song whatever way you want, so it becomes familiar to certain circumstances in your life, therefore allowing the song to have more power than a simple "tune"
Devo sings, but you dont realise it at all because all that he does it backup vocals. If you heard the echo, that was Devo making it sound like Maynards voice echoing.
Thanks to all who have read my comment and I hope this clears up any confusion.
Personally, I like 'my version' better :) It fits much more beautifully into my interpretation of the song, after all both I and my Lover have 'blue eyes' ;) Also, isn't it a beauty and wonder too that all true Art is really about what it evokes and inspires in its admirers, it is, after all, the whole point :) And never mind the fact that I very much believe my 'reprinting' of the lyrics are dead-on accurate ;) Much Love, sweetie
Actually in every version of the lyrics I can find, it's EYES. So maybe you should look that up or something... i could be wrong I suppose but I just spent a half hour going through about twenty sites with the lyrics posted and it says EYES in every one. Not that you interpretation is wrong, just that line.

Dear everyone who is wondering,

But you're butchering the meaning as it was written to be!!!
If you want that to be the meaning write and record your own damn song. -_-

Maynard says that it's for the listener to interpret the song in the way they hear, feel, and see it.

'turning blue'..'ignore the smoke'..i always got the feeling he was entranced with how beautiful his love looked as she died. great song..
Revrin743 2 years ago
I feel similarly... like their actual relationship is what's dying, u know? Always fun to see how others interpret music :)

"Close my eyes just to look at you"... "Such a lovely color for... (your eyes)"... "Just ignore the smoke and SMILE". What fantastic lyrics!

It's "your life" not your eyes.
The lyrics are nice, but not quite in that way...
