Summertime in December
Summertime Love: A Journey Across Borders and Broken Hearts
Lyrics
Booked a flight through the night
Expressing the act of booking a flight during the night.
To come see you
Travelling to visit someone.
Showed up at your door unannounced ‘cause I need you to know
Arriving unannounced at the person's door to convey important emotions.
I’ve got feelings for ya
Admitting to having romantic feelings for the person.
And I tried to hide ‘em
Acknowledging an attempt to conceal those feelings.
(I don’t wanna hide no more)
Expressing a desire to be open about emotions.
You know its kinda funny
Reflecting on the humor in the situation.
I travelled the globe
Having traveled extensively globally.
Tryna get away from the broken love I left back home
Trying to escape a past love but realizing it's futile.
Journey was bumpy
Describing a challenging journey.
I’ve fought these roads
Having faced difficulties on the journey.
I’ve learned its no use ‘cause they just lead me back to you
Understanding that efforts to move on only lead back to the person.
You were my summertime in December
Describing the person as a source of warmth and positivity.
The only thing I could feel
Emphasizing the emotional impact of the connection.
No it didn’t last forever
Acknowledging that the positive experience was temporary.
But at least we knew it was real
Highlighting the authenticity of the emotions shared.
You were my summertime in December
Repeating the sentiment of the person being a special moment.
The only thing I could feel
Reiterating the temporary nature of the connection.
No it didn’t last forever
Emphasizing the reality of the emotions felt.
But at least we knew it was real
Affirming the authenticity of the emotions despite their transient nature.
She was working in a cafe down in market street oh I
Introducing another character and setting.
Knew it was over soon as I looked into those eyes
Realizing that a relationship is ending by looking into the person's eyes.
I asked her name and she said check the receipt
Learning the person's name through a receipt.
Had her name and her number written there in the ink
Discovering contact information on the receipt.
We spent some time together
Sharing time together and improving life.
Life was getting better
Experiencing positive changes.
Fill our days with each other
Spending time intimately together.
Loving under covers
Engaging in affectionate moments under covers.
But we, we knew
Acknowledging the inevitable separation.
Right from the start
Realizing from the beginning that distance would be a challenge.
The day was gonna come where we would have to love from afar
Anticipating the day when they would have to love from a distance.
You were my summertime in December
Repeating the sentiment of the person being a special moment.
The only thing I could feel
Emphasizing the emotional impact of the connection.
No it didn’t last forever
Acknowledging the impermanence of the positive experience.
But at least we knew it was real
Reiterating the temporary nature of the connection.
You were my summertime in December
Repeating the sentiment of the person being a special moment.
The only thing I could feel
Reiterating the temporary nature of the connection.
No it didn’t last forever
Emphasizing the reality of the emotions felt.
But at least we knew it was real
Affirming the authenticity of the emotions despite their transient nature.
You were my summertime in December
Repeating the sentiment of the person being a special moment.
The only thing I could feel
Emphasizing the emotional impact of the connection.
No it didn’t last forever
Acknowledging the impermanence of the positive experience.
But at least we knew it was real
Affirming the authenticity of the emotions despite their transient nature.
