Summer Lover
Cub Sport Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Baby you know I never had a summer with another
I always get burned
Baby yeah I’ve been hiding in shadows
Riding my highs and my lows in the sand
Mmm I’m gonna take you to the beach
I’m gonna take you to the water
I’m gonna take you to the beach
I’m gonna take you to the water
I never had a summer with another
I never had a summer with a lover
(I’m gonna take you to the water)
I never had a summer with another
(Water)
I never had a summer with a lover
(I’m gonna take you to the water)
I never had a summer with another
I never had a summer with a lover
Baby the waves were crashing down on me
Felt like I forgot how to breathe without ya
But baby with you I’m hanging out at ten
It’s easier than when I’m not around ya
Mmm I’m gonna take you to the beach
I’m gonna take you to the water
I’m gonna take you to the beach
I’m gonna take you to the water
I never had a summer with another
(With a lover)
I never had a summer with a lover
(With a lover ooh)
I never had a summer with another
I never had a summer with a lover




I never had a summer with a lover
I never had a summer with a lover

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Cub Sport's song Summer Lover seem to be about a person who has never had a positive summer experience with someone they love. The song is about finding someone who changes their perspective on summer and makes it enjoyable. The first verse talks about how the singer has never had a "summer with another" and how they always "get burned." This could be interpreted as the singer never finding someone to share their summer experiences with and always ending up hurt when they try. They mention how they've been "hiding in shadows" and "riding highs and lows in the sand," which could be a metaphor for feeling lost and alone during the summer months.


However, the chorus seems to indicate a change in their perspective. The singer proclaims that they're "gonna take you to the beach" and "take you to the water" multiple times. This could be interpreted as the singer finding someone who changes their summer experience for the better. They mention how they've "never had a summer with a lover" multiple times, indicating that this new relationship is a first for them. The second verse talks about how "the waves were crashing down" on them before this new person came into their life, and how they have an easier time with them around.


Overall, the lyrics of Summer Lover seem to be about finding that special someone who makes summer meaningful and enjoyable, even if the singer has never experienced that before. It's a hopeful message about how love can change a person's perspective and make life more enjoyable.
