Een Zomerdag Voor Jou en Mij Alleen
Jo Vally Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Toen ik je zag je lieve lach
Ik dacht meteen
Nee ga nou nooit meer heen
M’n hart beroert heel diep ontroerd
Toen jij me zei
Hou toch van mij

Een zomerdag voor jou en mij alleen
De wereld was verdwenen om ons heen
De uren gleden moeiteloos voorbij
Met jou hier aan m’n zij

Je maakte aan die mooie droom een eind
Niets bleef er van die liefde overeind
Je woorden waren echter niet oprecht
Maar ‘k was aan jou gehecht

Een zomerdag voor jou en mij alleen
De wereld was verdwenen om ons heen

De uren gleden moeiteloos voorbij
Met jou hier aan m’n zij

The lyrics convey a sense of longing and a desire for the moment to last forever, with the singer pleading for the other person to stay and never leave.


The imagery of a summer day shared between the singer and their beloved is painted as a magical and intimate experience, where the outside world fades away, leaving only the two of them in a cocoon of happiness and tranquility.

The repeated chorus of the song emphasizes the fleeting nature of the summer day spent with the loved one, highlighting the transient beauty of their time together. The singer reflects on the ephemeral quality of the moment, acknowledging that it was a brief interlude of happiness in the larger narrative of their relationship. The imagery of the disappearing world around them underscores the temporary nature of the connection, yet the sentiment of having the loved one by their side lingers on, suggesting a lingering sense of longing and nostalgia for what once was.
