I cannot say what it must really mean, but I will say it reminds me of myself during my "depressing" teen years. When I was 16 I ran away from home and left my family a suicide letter. I was found later that night by the police and I was brought to a mental institution because of the suicide note. My sister came to visit me often. I was not really that depressed, I was feeling very down about something going on in my life that made me feel, unnoticed and alone. I still managed to smile at everyone, sing songs everyday, and I was generally happy, I was just suffering from a bit of loneliness. My sister put together this photo album for me while I was in the institution and the album was filled with photos from all the happiest times with my family, and even photos of just myself, wonderful photos that she had taken herself. At the end of the album, there was a sheet of paper with the lyrics to this song written on it, and then a little note from her telling me how much she loved me and cared about me, and this song made her think of me because I was happy but alone, "sing a song to anyone that comes along" was like my desperate cry for a friend, "fragile as a leaf in Autumn fallin to the ground" was very much me the night I ran away from home. |

The song was not written by Norah Jones, nor by female, the actual writer was a man named Lee Alexander. So this takes away your whole reasoning. |
