I think he's a great song writer. Music is great, the lyrics are deep or fun and his voice is dreamy. What a great combination.

I'm not a Switchfoot fan, yet I have enjoyed Jon Foreman's solo work. Not every song, but most of what I've heard so far.

Any thoughts? What do you think this song is saying / what does it mean to you?

Switchfoot - "Daisy" - YouTube

I think it is not referring to a person, but Daisy as in the flower - it seems to fit with the other references to the rain and the sunshine. The daisy/rain/sunshine seems to be an analogy for God and us. We are the Daisies, rooted in the ground (the world) but longing to "let go" and fly away, knowing that the ground "doesnt hold your interest, doesnt hold your soul..."
(OnDistantShores 12-18-2005)

I agree with the above statement. Although, I believe the song may refer to both daisy as a flower and a person. (Colleen1)

It seems like another beautiful Switchfoot reminder to stay strong, weather the storms of life, put your hope where it belongs, and dont hold on too tight to this fallen world in which we live. (unknown)

Daisy
Daisy, give yourself away,
Look up at the rain
The beautiful display,
of power and surrender
Giving us today,
when she gives herself away

Rain, another rainy day,
It comes up from the ocean
To give herself away,
She comes down easy
Oh rich and debt, the same,
When she gives herself away,

Let it go,
Daisy let it go
Open up your fists
This fallen world,
Doesn't hold your interest,
Doesn't hold your soul,
Daisy let it go

Pain, give yourself a name,
Call yourself contrition,
Avarice or blame
Giving isn't easy,
And neither is the rain,
when she gives herself away

Daisy, why another day?
Why another sunrise?
Who's will take the blame,
For all redemptive motion?
And every rainy day,
when he gives himself away

Let it go,
Daisy let it go,
Open your fists
This fallen world,
Doesn't hold your interest,
Doesn't doesn't hold your soul,
Daisy let it go

Let it go (ooh...)

Let it go.
Let it go.
And you let it (Go, go!)
Let it go (Go! Let it go! Let it go! Go!)
(Let it go!)
(Let it go,)
