Planned a show
Trees and Balloons
Ice cream snow
See you in June
Could have known
I would reveal
Should have known
I would conceal your way
She knows, she knows, she knows
She knows, she knows, she knows
How's it
She knows, she knows, she knows
Colors show
After the moon
I should go
See you in June
Your way
Open your eyes
To these must I lie?
Trees and Balloons
Ice cream snow
See you in June
Could have known
I would reveal
Should have known
I would conceal your way
She knows, she knows, she knows
She knows, she knows, she knows
How's it
She knows, she knows, she knows
Colors show
After the moon
I should go
See you in June
Your way
Open your eyes
To these must I lie?

My interpretation is very symbolic - and I believe its a song about sex, differences and the unspoken. He is after a fling or affair whereas she is looking for commitment.
"Planned a show" - its of his own making. He conceived the idea. And it is a "show", not genuine but trickery
"Trees and Balloons" - rudimentary symbolism, eroginous body parts hope thats clear enough
"Ice cream snow" - Ejaculation
"See you in June" - What is important about June? Nothing for me in New Zealand its winter. But in the US, its the beginning of summertime = Holidays. So its Holiday sex, or nothing important a fling. ie he isn't taking it seriously.
"Could of known I would reveal" and "how's it she knows, she knows, she knows"- Her intuition can read his intentions without anything being said, possibly she becomes aware that she's just a bit on the side. Or at least it seems to him that this is the case
"Should have known I would conceil your way" - Not so certain. Possibly emotional detatchment, keeping his emotions seperate from hers. She has a very different "way" of doing things = long term commitment, so he is keeping her emotional needs very separate from his. Conceil could also have a double meaning that he is hiding this affair from others.
"Colours show After the moon" - During the day time, we can see each other for who they really are. Day and night here are metaphorical. So after a period of time, all becomes clear about the other person.
"I should go" - When a relationship is beyond salvation and there is nothing you can do to salvage the damage from the other person you say "I should go". You say this in the hope that the second person says "wait….". So he is hoping she still wants him despite what she now knows about him.
"See you in June, your way" - He is keeping the doomed relationship going. Summertime and "your way" are illusions of better times, he is making empty promises that things will be better in the future and that he'll do things the way she wants them. However....
"Open your eyes to these I must lie" - He feels guilty about it. The promises are just deceitful.
Anyway, I personally always saw this as from the point of view of a man who's cheating.....and though he hasn't told his girlfriend/wife or whatever, she somehow knows. And he's filled with remorse because he knows she knows and it's killing him because he knows she's hurt, and ultimately he chooses to leave her because he can't stand it anymore - "I should go, see you in June", representing perhaps a transition back to friendship without him ever verbally telling her about his cheating. Just the somber feel of the song reminds me of love and the numb sort of pain that comes with it, and all the added things resulting in heartbreak for one or both parties.
and yeah going through the whole ARG i really like you but do you like me?? sorta teenage bullshit and this song is quite nice just to sorta stay positive to really.

"Pick your pockets full of sorrow
And run away with me tomorrow
June "
"Planned a show
Trees and Balloons
Ice cream snow
See you in June "
A coincidence?
