About You
Blossom Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All last summer in case you don't recall
I was your and you were mine forget it all
Is there a line that I could write
Sad enough to make you cry
All the lines you wrote to me were lies
The months roll past the love that you struck dead
Did you love me? Only in my head.
Things you said and did to me
Seemed to come so easily
The love I thought I'd won you give for free

Whispers at the bus stop
Well I heard about nights at the school yard
I found out about you

Rumours follow everywhere you go
And when you left I was last to know
You're famous now and there's no doubt
In all the places you hang out
They know your name and know what you're about

Whispers at the bus stop
I heard about nights out in the school yard
I found out about you
I found out about you

Street lights blink on through the car window
I get the time too often on AM radio
You know it's all I think about
I write your name drive past your house
Your boyfriend's over I watch your lights go out

Whispers at the bus stop




I heard about nights out in the school yard
I found out about you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Blossom's song "About You" tell a poignant tale of heartbreak and betrayal following a summer romance that ended in deception and lies. The singer reflects on the time they spent with this person, questioning if there was anything they could have done to make them truly care. The bitterness and longing in the lyrics are palpable as the singer realizes that the love they believed was real was only a figment of their imagination. The heartbreaking realization that the other person never truly loved them is a central theme of the song.


The imagery of whispers at the bus stop and rumors following the subject of the song everywhere they go paints a picture of a small town where gossip spreads like wildfire. The singer is left feeling like they were the last to know about the other person's true nature, further intensifying their feelings of hurt and betrayal. As the subject of the song becomes famous, the singer is reminded of the ways in which they were misled and deceived, adding a layer of bitterness to their emotions.


The lyrics also describe the singer's obsessive thoughts about the person who hurt them. The mention of street lights blinking and listening to the radio evokes a sense of longing and heartache, as the singer admits that thoughts of this person consume their mind.

Line by Line Meaning

All last summer in case you don't recall
During the past summer, on the off chance you may have forgotten


I was your and you were mine forget it all
I belonged to you and you to me, let's put all that behind us


Is there a line that I could write
Can I find the right words


Sad enough to make you cry
That would bring tears to your eyes


All the lines you wrote to me were lies
All the words you wrote to me were not true


The months roll past the love that you struck dead
Time has moved on from the love you killed


Did you love me? Only in my head.
Did you ever truly love me, or was it just in my imagination


Things you said and did to me
Actions and words you directed towards me


Seemed to come so easily
appeared effortless


The love I thought I'd won you give for free
the affection I believed I earned, you freely gave away


Whispers at the bus stop
Rumors spreading at the bus stop


Well I heard about nights at the school yard
I caught wind of your activities at the school yard at night


I found out about you
I discovered the truth about you


Rumours follow everywhere you go
Gossip trails you wherever you go


And when you left I was last to know
I was the final one to learn of your departure


You're famous now and there's no doubt
You've become renowned, no question about it


In all the places you hang out
In every spot you frequent


They know your name and know what you're about
People are familiar with your name and your reputation


Street lights blink on through the car window
The streetlights flicker into view through the car window


I get the time too often on AM radio
I frequently check the time on AM radio


You know it's all I think about
You know you're all I can think about


I write your name drive past your house
I write your name as I drive by your home


Your boyfriend's over I watch your lights go out
Your boyfriend is present, and I observe your lights turning off
