Seasons
Mansionair Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Seasons change,
And I tried hard just to soften you
Seasons change,
But I've grown tired of trying to change for you

Cause I've been waiting on you
I've been waiting on you
Cause I've been waiting on you
I've been waiting on you

As it breaks, the summer will wake
But the winter will wash what is left of the taste
As it breaks, the summer will warm
But the winter will crave what is gone
Will crave what has all... gone away

People change,
You know but some people never do
You know when people change
They gain a peace but they lose one too

Cause I've been hanging on you
I've been waiting on you
Cause I've been waiting on you
I've been hanging on you

As it breaks, the summer will wake
But the winter will wash what is left of the taste
As it breaks, the summer will warm
But the winter will crave what is gone
Will crave what is gone
Will crave what has all... gone away





Cause I've been waiting on you

The changing seasons represent the ebb and flow of emotions, with the summer bringing warmth and the winter bringing a sense of loss. The lyrics, "But the winter will wash what is left of the taste" and "But the winter will crave what is gone," suggest a sense of longing and reminiscing for what has been lost.

This song has struck me and loved it ever since I heard it early this year on Triple j. Im interested to know what movie this clip was created from. I think it is really fitting and speaks volumes to me.
