Goodbye Summer
Danielle Bradbery Thomas Rhett Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I fell in love before he unpacked his bags
One look, one smile, one 'what's your name?'
One 'what you doing later? Wanna grab a drink?'
And it was hello summer, goodbye to my heart
Blue skies and blue eyes, a hell of a way to start
Letting him go would be the hardest part
To my heart
And who knew that one drink could turn into five?
Crazy how June burned into July
Tryna keep September from creeping in my head
Yeah, I knew what I was getting into the minute that I said
Hello summer, goodbye to my heart
Blue skies and blue eyes, a hell of a way to start
Letting him go would be the hardest part
Hello summer, goodbye to my heart
Oh, yeah
Yeah, he packed his bags, filled his tank with gas
Man, it went by so fast
Too good to last, yeah, just like that
It was goodbye summer, you tore me apart
Blue eyes and blue skies fade into the dark
Letting go is the hardest part
Yeah
Hello summer, goodbye to my heart
Blue skies and blue eyes, a hell of a way to start
Letting him go will be the hardest part
Goodbye summer, hello to my broken heart
My broken heart, yeah
My broken heart (yeah)
To my broken heart, yeah
Goodbye summer
The song "Goodbye Summer" by Danielle Bradbery is a heartwarming yet sorrowful track that tells the story of a summer fling that ends with a broken heart. The singer met a man with out of state tags in a parking lot and immediately fell in love with him before he even unpacked his bags. The singer describes how she was swept off her feet by the man's charming personality, good looks, and blue eyes. The song highlights how the beauty of the season, the man's company, and the fun-loving atmosphere of summer made her fall in love with him.
The lyrics follow a very familiar pattern of summer romances that begin and end quickly. The two lovers spent their days soaking in the summer sun, going on adventures, and having fun until they realize that the season is coming to an end. The singer expresses her reluctance to let go of her lover, but she has to accept that the fling was only temporary, and it was time to say goodbye. The chorus, "Hello summer, goodbye to my heart, Blue skies and blue eyes, a hell of a way to start, Letting him go would be the hardest part" perfectly encapsulates the fleeting nature of relationships that begin and end quickly, but leave a lasting impression.
The song communicates the relatable experience of summer love, the feeling of never wanting it to end, and then the pain of finally having to say goodbye to it. Danielle Bradbery's ability to conjure up memories of past experiences through her lyrics is impressive. Overall, "Goodbye Summer" is a fantastic song that perfectly captures the effervescence of a summer fling while also acknowledging the pain that comes with losing it.
