SUMMER
Doonie Way Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sun is shining down on me
It's been a long day, working week
I'm struggling to breath
She always comforts me

Smile pretty as can be
Her eyes greener than the sea
Oh Summer won't you run away with me

Sit in the shade under the trees
Summer breeze blows over me
Reach out to me
Oh, won't you sweep me off my feet

Oh Summer won't you run away with me
Oh Summer won't you run away with me
Oh Summer won't you run away with

Nights so cold, I can't sleep
Rain will fall, I can't see
I won't wait 'til, January
So I can see you, smile at me

Oh Summer won't you run away with me
Oh Summer won't you run away with me
Oh Summer won't you run away with me





Won't you run away with me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Doonie Way's "Summer" captures a desire to escape the monotony and stress of daily life and seek refuge in the simple pleasures of summer. The singer tells about a long day at work and struggling to breathe, but finds comfort in the company of someone who always makes him feel at ease. The lyrics capture the whimsy and romance of summer, with a desire to run away and sit under the shade of trees, feeling the summer breeze. The desire for a carefree summer escape is reinforced in the chorus when the singer asks the person they are singing to if they will run away with him.


The second verse contrasts the cold and dreary nights that leave the singer unable to sleep, longing for the warmth and comfort of summer. The need to see this person's smile is so overwhelming that the singer is willing to wait until January, but ultimately cannot resist the urge to ask, "Summer won't you run away with me?"


Overall, the song is an invitation to indulge in the simple joys of summer and escape the pressures of the world, if only for a little while. It tells a story of love found in the midst of the chaos of the world, and a desire to hold onto it by running away to a place of comfort and security.
