Summertime Blue
Elias Boussnina Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And loving you was easy,
Cause it had been a while since I been this high
Underneath the monkey-puzzle trees you and I
Cashew nuts and bad liquor
I swear to god it tasted good with ya
Summer so long, but it felt like a breeze, it felt too easy
It seemed the summer would last forever
The sky is still new, I know we're cool, but I still feel
Summertime blue
The sky is too blue to feel bad now
Fell in love with the summertime you
The sun is too bright to feel sad now
Picturing your summer eyes, summer thighs
Turn in to summer lies, summer cries
Fell in love with the summertime you
Feels pretty good to be sad, good to be sad now
Summer games we love to play
Something changed in the way you look at me
In between the monkey-puzzle trees you and I
Now you wanna patronize me
Somehow it dosent surprise me
Cause your like me, but you made me feel so blue
I thought it couldn't get any better
It seemed the summer would last forever
The sky is still new, I know we're cool, but I still feel
Summertime blue
The sky is too blue to feel bad now
Fell in love with the summertime you
The sun is too bright to feel sad now
Picturing your summer eyes, summer thighs
Turn in to summer lies, summer cries
Fell in love with the summertime you
Feels pretty good to be sad, good to be sad now
The summer now without you, you made me feel so blue
Feels pretty good to be sad, good to be sad now
Picturing your summer eyes, summer thighs
Turn in to summer lies, summer cries
Fell in love with the summertime you
Feels pretty good to be sad, good to be sad now

I met you in the summertime
I first saw you in the summer season
And loving you was easy,
It was effortless to fall in love with you
Cause it had been a while since I been this high
I hadn't felt this happy in a long time
Underneath the monkey-puzzle trees you and I
We spent time together under the monkey-puzzle trees
Cashew nuts and bad liquor
We consumed cashew nuts and low-quality alcoholic drinks
I swear to god it tasted good with ya
It tasted great when I had it with you
Summer so long, but it felt like a breeze, it felt too easy
The summer season was long but it seemed to fly, it was too easy to go through
I, I thought it couldn't get any better
I never imagined that things could get better than this
It seemed the summer would last forever
It felt like the summer would go on and never end
The sky is still new, I know we're cool, but I still feel
The sky looks new, and although everything is fine, I still feel
Summertime blue
Feeling blue during the summer season
The sky is too blue to feel bad now
The sky is so blue that it's impossible to feel down
Fell in love with the summertime you
I fell in love with the version of you during summertime
The sun is too bright to feel sad now
The sun shines too brightly for me to feel sad
Picturing your summer eyes, summer thighs
Thinking of your eyes and thighs during the summer season
Turn in to summer lies, summer cries
Those thoughts turned into lies and resulted in tears
Feels pretty good to be sad, good to be sad now
It feels satisfying to be sad now
Summer games we love to play
We enjoyed playing summer games together
Something changed in the way you look at me
There was a noticeable change in the way you looked at me
Now you wanna patronize me
Now you seem to be treating me condescendingly
Somehow it dosent surprise me
Somehow it doesn't come as a surprise to me
Cause your like me, but you made me feel so blue
It's because you're like me that you made me feel so down
The summer now without you, you made me feel so blue
During this summer without you, you made me feel sad
