In 2019, Heesters appeared on the Dutch tv-series Beste Zangers where she covered โPa Olvidarteโ by ChocQuibTown with Dominican-Dutch singer Rolf Sanchez. The single became a breakout hit, peaking at #2 on the official Dutch Top 40. It ranked as one of the biggest hits of the 2010s.
She then continued to release singles in Dutch. Her follow-up โLoop Niet Wegโ with Kris Kross Amsterdam and Tino Martin became a Top 5-hit, while โWaar Ga Je Heenโ became a platinum-certified Top 20-hit in the Netherlands.
In 2021, she again collaborated with Kris Kross Amsterdam on Ronnie Flexโs big comeback single โAlles Wat Ik Misโ, which became Heesters her third Top 10-hit on the Dutch official singles chart. Later that year, she crossed over to Belgium as a feature on Metejoorโs โRendez-vousโ. It became a summer hit and peaked inside the Top 5 of the Flemish Ultratop 50. She also appeared on The Masked Singer as the Crocodile.
In 2022, she continued to score hits in Belgium. Her collaboration โZwaartekrachtโ with Rรฉgi became a platinum-certified Top 10-hit. She also performed on Tien Om Te Zien. The singles however failed to impact the Dutch charts in any significant way. Her 2023 duet โDat Hadden Wij Moeten Zijnโ with Belgian singer Maksim became Heesters her third Top 10-hit in the Flemish Ultratop 50.
Spring day
Emma Heesters Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I don't know what to do
I'm missing you
These pictures just remind me of you
I miss you
And time is just so cruel
I hate this trying to see you once, never worked out once
Where do we find the chance?
With my heart I walk alone across time, this train is a snow piercer
Want to take you by the hand and
Forge across the other end of the earth
Tell me how much more should I long for
You and pray for spring to come forth, friend
Like little specks of dust
Floating round in the air, floating round in the air
If I was snow in the air,
Will I get to you even just a little bit faster?
Snowflakes keep falling down
They drift away further around
I'm missing you, oh I miss you
And how long do I have to wait
How many sleepless night, do I have to take?
To finally see you, to meet you
Passing by the edge of this winter
At least until the change of the weather When spring comes and
Flowers bloom Just stay until
Then, please stay and wait a little more
I tried to excel you in vain like
Smoke in the rain (white smoke in the rain)
I say that i cant forget you
But up until now, I know I can't let you go
Snowflakes keep falling down
They drift away further around
I'm missing you, oh I miss you
And how long do I have to wait
How many sleepless night, do I have to take?
To finally see you, to meet you(only you)
Passing by the edge of this winter
At least until the change of the weather When spring comes and
Flowers bloom Just stay until then,
Please stay, and wait a little more
The lyrics of Emma Heesters's song Spring Day are about missing someone and the pain of not being able to see them. The singer expresses their feelings of loneliness and longing, as well as their frustration with the passage of time. They reminisce about memories with the person they miss and how everything around them reminds them of the person they wish to see again.
The line "And it feels so cold like winter, it's August and not December" suggests that the singer is in a state of emotional winter, where they feel stuck and unable to move forward. The reference to the movie Snowpiercer with the line "this train is a snow piercer" reflects the same feeling of being trapped and unable to escape the pain of missing someone. The singer imagines being able to travel to the other end of the earth with the person they miss and wonders how long they will have to wait to see them again.
In the chorus, the singer wonders how long they have to wait and how many sleepless nights they have to endure before they can finally see the person they miss. They express their desire for the person to stay and wait for them until spring comes and the flowers bloom. The line "I say that I can't forget you, but up until now, I know I can't let you go" shows that the singer is conflicted about their feelings towards the person they miss.
Overall, the song captures the pain and longing of missing someone and the hope that one day they will be reunited. The lyrics are introspective and emotional, with powerful imagery that reflects the singer's feelings of being trapped and unable to move forward.

I'm missing you
I long for your presence
And I don't know what to do
I am confused and lost without you
These pictures just remind me of you
Seeing pictures of you only makes me miss you more
And time is just so cruel
Time is not helping me forget you and is instead making me miss you more
I hate this trying to see you once, never worked out once
I am tired of attempting to see you, but we have never been successful
Where do we find the chance?
I wonder where and when we will be able to meet
And it feels so cold like winter it's August and not December
The emptiness and loneliness I feel without you is like the harshness of winter, even if it's not winter yet
With my heart I walk alone across time, this train is a snow piercer
My heart is alone as I traverse through time, and it's painful like the train in the movie Snow Piercer
Want to take you by the hand and
I wish to hold your hand
Forge across the other end of the earth
I want to travel to the other side of the world with you
Tell me how much more should I long for
I am asking how much longer I will have to wait to be with you
You and pray for spring to come forth, friend
I will continue to miss you and hope for a reunion until spring comes
Like little specks of dust
Like tiny particles floating in the air
Floating round in the air, floating round in the air
Drifting aimlessly without direction
If I was snow in the air,
If I were snowflakes floating in the air
Will I get to you even just a little bit faster?
Will I reach you sooner, even if it's only a little?
Snowflakes keep falling down
Snowflakes keep falling from the sky
They drift away further around
They move away farther from me
And how long do I have to wait
I am questioning how much longer I will have to wait to see you
How many sleepless night, do I have to take?
How many sleepless nights will I have to endure?
To finally see you, to meet you
To finally see you and be able to meet with you
At least until the change of the weather When spring comes and
I hope to stay until spring comes
Flowers bloom Just stay until
Until flowers bloom, please stay with me
Then, please stay and wait a little more
Please stay with me and wait just a little longer
I tried to excel you in vain like Smoke in the rain (white smoke in the rain)
I tried to forget you, but it was a futile attempt, like trying to see white smoke in the rain
I say that i cant forget you
I admit that I cannot forget about you
But up until now, I know I can't let you go
I still cannot let you go, even until now

@TiaSCREAMS
Every time I listen to Spring Day, I get a little sad because this song is about missing a friend, waiting for him to return although in reality, the friend passed away. I'm so touched that you're able to capture the essence of longingness in your voice!
