Last September
Capturing September's Love Story: A Sundress, LA Nights, and Forever Memories
Lyrics
Never been believer in love at first sight
Expresses skepticism or disbelief in love at first sight.
'Til I landed in LA that late summer night
Describes the moment of arrival in LA during late summer.
She was wearin' a sundress, it fit her just right
Details the woman's attire, a sundress that fits well.
And her sun kissed skin brought out the look in her eyes
Highlights the beauty of her sun-kissed skin and expressive eyes.
First glance I saw her, I had to have her
Expresses immediate attraction and desire upon seeing her.
I think we'd live happy ever after
Envisions a future of lasting happiness with her.
Pictured the rest of our lives together
Imagines a life together and plans for a shared future.
She looked like she could've been my Heather
Compares her to someone significant, possibly an idealized person ("Heather").
Blue skies they make me remember
Associates blue skies with memories, specifically from last September.
That girl I saw last September
Recalls a memorable encounter with a girl in September.
You win I guess I surrender
Conveys acceptance of defeat or acknowledgment of a conclusion.
She'll be in my heart forever
Declares the enduring presence of her in the speaker's heart.
I've been doing my best to keep her out of my mind
Acknowledges efforts to forget her but implies difficulty in doing so.
But I would do anything to make that LA girl mine
Expresses willingness to do anything to win the affection of the LA girl.
The way her hair dropped down, it made her look so fine
Describes the attractiveness of her hair and overall appearance.
And I'll remember her smile for the rest of my life
Commits to remembering her smile for the entirety of the speaker's life.
Took time to realize you're all I wanted
Realizes the importance of the person and expresses a desire for them.
Erase time and rewind to where it started
Suggests a wish to go back in time to the beginning of their connection.
You're not mine so that means I'm broken-hearted
Admits to heartbreak due to the realization that she is not romantically involved.
But I know that she'll never be forgotten
Asserts the belief that she will always be remembered despite not being together.
Blue skies they make me remember
Reiterates the association of blue skies with memories, specifically of the girl in September.
That girl I saw last September
Recalls the impact of the girl encountered in September.
You win I guess I surrender
Acknowledges defeat or acceptance of circumstances related to the girl.
She'll be in my heart forever
Declares a lasting place for her in the speaker's heart.
