Springtide Summer
Hunter G K Thompson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Have journeyed from their homes in the northern shores
They rid themselves of travels and all their cloths
Have come to rest in our lands to hear their foretold
Although our hands will all grow worn
Although a day has passed since you've been born
Although our lives are getting old
The window to my heart will never close
They asked us for our secrets our stories we told
Of how our lives we could enjoy despite growing old
Although our hands will all grow worn
Although a day has passed since you've been born
Although our lives are getting old
The window to my heart will never close
My love for you to hold
Throughout our springtide summer our days would slip into nights
Anticipations for the sea were the only thoughts in our minds
Our lives seemed pointless compared to the colors in the sky
Yet we fell in denial that our summer was growing cold
Throughout our springtide summer
Hunter G.K. Thompson's song Springtide Summer depicts a group of brothers who travel from their northern homes to a new land in order to hear the stories and secrets of the locals. Thompson's lyrics suggest that the travelers have rid themselves of all their possessions, including their clothes, in order to embark on this journey. Despite the inevitability of aging and the passing of time, the singer of the song declares that their love will always remain open and steadfast. The locals share their stories with the travelers, emphasizing the importance of enjoying life despite its brevity. As the seasons change and their summer comes to a close, the group falls into denial, refusing to acknowledge that their time together is growing short.

The travelers have given up everything in order to explore the world and hear the stories of others, while the locals emphasize the importance of savoring life's fleeting moments. In the end, despite the passage of time and the changing of seasons, love remains a constant, providing hope and reassurance as the group faces the uncertainties and challenges of life.

The brothers on your doorstep of your front porch
The visitors have come from afar and arrived at your doorstep
Have journeyed from their homes in the northern shores

The visitors have come to hear the stories and secrets of the locals
Although our hands will all grow worn
Despite the wear and tear of life, we persevere
Although a day has passed since you've been born
Time marches on, even since your birth

Throughout our springtide summer our days would slip into nights
During the prime of our lives, time felt fleeting
Anticipations for the sea were the only thoughts in our minds
We looked forward to the sea with excitement
Our lives seemed pointless compared to the colors in the sky
The beauty of our natural surroundings made us reconsider life's purpose
Yet we fell in denial that our summer was growing cold
Despite the approaching end of our prime, we refused to accept it
Throughout our springtide summer
During the peak of our lives, when we felt invincible
