Indian Summer
Canon Blue Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Consider this a sign
I am alone in a long, long line
And even if you could feel alright
There's a reason you never could seize it
When everything is wrong
And it has been for a long, long time
The place you have will never be right
But I'll keep you awake long enough to try
I won't make you anymore tired
I don't have the heart to say that

Chorus:
No, you won't ever reach me
You won't ever reach me
You won't ever reach
Won't ever reach
No, you won't ever reach me
Won't ever reach me
You won't ever reach
Won't ever reach

It's always like before
I'm trying hard not to try so hard
Putting words in a birthday card
If you feel it you better reveal it
When all we have is time
The last two in a long, long line
The place we have will never be right
But I'll keep you awake long enough to try
I won't make you anymore tired
I won't make you say the words out loud
All of this, and all of this a way to
All of this a way to go

Chorus

Consider this is a sign
Consider this is a way out
Consider this a sign
Consider this a way out





Chorus

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Canon Blue's "Indian Summer" depict a feeling of isolation and detachment. The opening lines suggest the singer's loneliness, as they find themselves alone in a long line. They proceed to acknowledge that even if someone could make them feel better, there is a deeper reason why they cannot find happiness or fulfillment. The verse suggests a state of hopelessness and dissatisfaction that has persisted for an extended period of time. The singer appears to be trying to motivate themselves and their partner to keep trying, to not give up despite the difficult circumstances, perhaps because of the fear of being even more exhausted and worn out.


The chorus, "No, you won't ever reach me," reinforces the sense of disconnection in the song. The singer seems to be acknowledging the fact that they are trapped in their situation and cannot be reached or helped by anyone, including their partner. This feeling persists even when surrounded by others, represented by the line "It's always like before," suggesting that regardless of the circumstances, the singer remains unfulfilled.


The repetition of the phrase "consider this a sign" suggests that the singer may be trying to find meaning in their situation, trying to find a catalyst that will enable them to break out of their current state, as the line "Consider this a way out" emphasizes. Despite the bleak nature of the lyrics, they are delivered with a sense of hopefulness and determination, urging the listener to keep trying.
