Lyrics
Summer's gone you go
Expressing the end of summer and a departure.
and I cannot tell a lie, I still see you waveside
Admitting honesty, the speaker still sees the person by the waveside.
Soaking up the sun
Recalling moments of enjoying the sun together.
The one we both lived by, but now I burn and cry
Referencing a shared principle, but now experiencing pain and tears.
Living in our love again
Reflecting on living in the memories of their love.
Through a glass of rum, was I a fool for you all the time
Questioning if the speaker was foolish for the person throughout.
I'm still blowing smoke
Continuing to exhibit emotional distress and detachment.
Alone on weeknights, time isn't paradise
Expressing loneliness on weeknights, acknowledging the absence of paradise.
Oh, my summers gone
Reiterating the acknowledgment of the end of summer.
And I, I know I'll never see her again, again
Accepting the reality that the speaker won't see the person again.
I been driving out
Describing aimless driving as a means of escape.
Nowhere to go today, just far enough to get away
Emphasizing the desire to get away from the present situation.
From my heavy heart
Noting the burden of a heavy heart.
So long since I've been keeping you company
Acknowledging a long period of solitude without the person.
My peace is all apart
Expressing a sense of internal disarray.
Nothing to run to I'm lost & wandering
Feeling lost and wandering without direction.
I'd die to see you now
Expressing a strong longing to see the person again.
The sun is up, but you're still not around
Observing the absence of the person despite the sun being up.
Oh, my summers gone
Repeating the acknowledgment of the end of summer.
And I, I know I'll never see her again, again
Reiterating the acceptance that the person won't be seen again.
Ah, the sun is up
Noting the presence of sunlight despite personal coldness.
But I'm still cold
Expressing a lingering emotional coldness despite external conditions.
Ah, but I'm still cold, but I'm still cold
Repeating the persistent emotional coldness.
