Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Do you wanna build a snowman?
Come on, let's go and play
I never see you anymore
Come out the door
It's like you've gone away
We used to be best buddies
I wish you would tell me why
Do you wanna build a snowman?
It doesn't have to be a snowman
Go away, Anna
Okay, bye
Do you wanna build a snowman?
Or ride our bike around the halls?
I think some company is overdue
I've started talking to
The pictures on the walls
Hang in there, Joan
It gets a little lonely
All these empty rooms
Just watching the hours tick by
Elsa? Please, I know you're in there
People are asking where you've been
They say, "Have courage," and I'm trying to
I'm right out here for you
Just let me in
We only have each other
It's just you and me
What are we gonna do?
Do you wanna build a snowman?
The song "Do You Want to Build a Snowman?" from the Disney movie "Frozen" is sung by Anna as she tries to connect with her sister Elsa, who has isolated herself in her bedroom. The opening lines, "Do you want to build a snowman? Come on, let's go and play!" are Anna's effort to get Elsa to come out of her room and join her in some childhood fun. The lines "We used to be best buddies, and now we're not. I wish you would tell me why!" express Anna's sadness and confusion about the sudden distance between them.
As the song progresses, Anna sings about how lonely she is without Elsa, and how she is resorting to talking to the pictures on the wall. She pleads with Elsa to let her in and acknowledges the pressure Elsa is under, singing "They say 'have courage' and I'm trying to, I'm right out here for you, just let me in."
The song is a poignant representation of the toll that mental health issues and isolation can take not only on the person experiencing them, but also on those who care about them. It also underscores the importance of communication and connection in overcoming these challenges.
