Summertime Girl
Eternal Love Lost: A Summertime Tale of Heartbreak
Lyrics
I fell in love last summer
The speaker fell in love during the previous summer.
with a wonderful girl
Describes the girl as wonderful, indicating a strong admiration.
She had this shimmer around her
The girl had an aura of allure or charm.
that really rocked my world
Her presence significantly impacted the speaker's life.
But at the end of the season
At the end of summer, she announced her departure.
She said she had to leave
She left without explaining the reason behind her departure.
She didn't give me a reason
There was no explanation given by the girl for leaving.
but promised me
However, she promised to return as the speaker's "summertime girl."
She'd be my summertime girl.
She assured the speaker of being present in future summers.
She came back this summer
The girl returned in the following summer.
I fell in love again
The speaker fell in love with her again.
But I knew when the summer is over
The speaker was aware that their love might not last past summer.
this love will be in vain
The love felt during summer was expected to be futile.
So I had this thing to ask her
The speaker had an important question to ask her.
and I got down on one knee
The speaker proposed on one knee.
But she just smiled and answered she'd only be
She responded positively but indicated her commitment only for the summer.
My summertime girl
She would only be the speaker's summer companion.
I really thought that I found my true love
The speaker believed they found true love in her during summer.
in this summertime girl
The speaker idealized her over girls from other seasons.
The girls of winter, spring, or fall
Believes no other girls could match her.
can not compare with her
Feels strongly about waiting for her until the summer.
So here I sit as the snow is fallin'
The speaker waits during winter for her return in summer.
waiting for the summer to come
The speaker is waiting eagerly for the arrival of summer.
And as I hear the songbirds callin'
Even with the signs of impending summer, the girl is no longer present.
I found out she's all gone
The realization that she is gone hits the speaker.
Many years have passed since the last time
Years have passed since the speaker saw the girl.
I saw my summertime girl
The memories of the girl persist in the speaker's mind.
But the memories remains in my mind
The impact she had on the speaker remains strong.
Oh, how she rocked my world
Reflects on the profound effect she had on the speaker's life.
And all those nights we spend together
Recollection of the harmonious moments spent together.
in perfect harmony
Describes the blissful time they shared.
But I guess then, now, and forever she will be
Acknowledges that she will forever remain the speaker's summer love.
My summertime girl.
