Seasons
Good Charlotte Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And what it was like when we were together,
Walking all along the beach, you were never far from my reach,
And you held me through the stormy weather,
[Chorus]
And I want to fall in love tonight,
And I remember when you said "everything's gonna be alright"
Laying in the summer grass, you told me not to talk so fast,
As I told you how I feel,
You made me feel right at home,
You told me I was not alone and you knew just how I feel,
[Chorus]
I know we talked about it, I just can't get around it,
I just want one more night with you,
[Chorus]
October air reminds me of all the seasons of your love,
And what it was like when we were together
The smell of fall is everywhere and though it seems,
I just don't care, 'cause now you've gone away,
[Chorus]
The song "Seasons" by Good Charlotte is a melancholic reflection on memories of a past love. The lyrics speak to the powerful emotional connection between two people who shared memorable experiences together. The rapper describes the summer air reminding him of the feelings of love and the moments spent with his partner. Walking along the beach, they were never far from each other, even during the stormy days when his partner held him close.
The chorus is a plea to fall in love again and a nostalgic remembrance of when his partner reassured him that everything would be all right. The memories he has of his relationship with his partner, especially the lazy summer days spent laying on the grass, have stayed with him. They shared an intimate connection, and his partner made him feel at home, providing reassurance that he was not alone. However, despite all the memories, he cannot shake the feeling that he only wants one more night.
In the final part of the song, the rapper's thoughts shift to the fall, and the memories come flooding back. The "October air" reminds him of all the seasons of his love, but there is now a sense of sadness and loss. The smell of fall permeates the air, and even though it seems he should not care, his love for his partner has not diminished despite having gone away.
