Seasons
Burlap To Cashmere Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Seasons come and go
Fade until tomorrow
Seasons come and go

And leave that smile away
They say, leave that smile away
You can come around but never stay
Everybody look
Everybody seem
Faded into a bad, bad dream
Wheels don't work, car won't drive
Nowhere to go, nowhere to hide
One naked man
One naked scheme
Faded into a bad, bad dream
Everybody look
Everybody glide
Glide along and wave goodbye

Seasons come and go
Fade until tomorrow
Seasons come and go
Through the hills and valleys
Someone calls my name
Opens up the sky
Takes me off my train

Everybody look
Everybody seem
Faded into a bad, bad dream
Wheels don't work, car won't drive
Nowhere to go, nowhere to hide
One naked man
One naked scheme

Faded into a bad, bad dream
Everybody look
Everybody glide
Glide along and wave goodbye

Everybody look
Everybody seem
Faded into a bad, bad dream

Everybody look




Everybody seem
Faded into a bad, bad dream

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Seasons" by Burlap to Cashmere are about the transitory nature of life and how we all come and go like the seasons. The song speaks of how everything fades away eventually - even our most cherished memories and our closest relationships. The repeated phrase "seasons come and go" serves as a poignant reminder of the cyclical nature of life, and how we must learn to let go and move on.


The song's chorus also warns against hanging on to false hopes and expectations. The lines "Leave that smile away/You can come around but never stay" suggest that we should not rely on other people or external circumstances to bring us happiness, as they will inevitably disappoint us. Instead, we must learn to find joy and contentment within ourselves, no matter what the seasons of life bring.


The verses of the song paint a vivid picture of a world in chaos, where everything seems to be falling apart. The words "wheels don't work, car won't drive/Nowhere to go, nowhere to hide" create a sense of utter helplessness and despair. However, amidst all the darkness and confusion, there is still a glimmer of hope. The lines "Through the hills and valleys/Someone calls my name/Opens up the sky/Takes me off my train" suggest that even in our most difficult moments, there is always the possibility of redemption and renewal.


Overall, "Seasons" is a powerful meditation on the fleeting nature of existence, and how we must learn to appreciate the beauty of life even as it slips away from us.
