Eskimo
Michelle And Vickie Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Looking for a heart
What you say, what you say, what you say now?
Seasons come and seasons change
Good things start to fade
Run away, run away, run away now
Wrap me in your memories
I’ll write our future in my dreams
To keep my body warm on the colder nights
Found love on a summer’s breeze
Drunk and swimming in the ocean late at night
Kissing under palm trees
And I saw the sun in your ocean eyes
It’s cold in California
An Eskimo Summer now you’re gone
I’m so cold in California
It’s an Eskimo Summer now you’re gone
Hand in mine just like a glove
Fingerprints of us
What you say, what you say, what you say now?
Like two passing clouds above
A momentary eternity
Never enough
Memories bittersweet
And I still taste you on the tip of my tongue
Your face is like a melody
It won’t leave my head like a favourite song
Found love on a summer’s breeze
Drunk and swimming in the ocean late at night
Kissing under palm trees
And I saw the sun in your ocean eyes
It’s cold in California
(Oh, you left a cold California)
An Eskimo Summer now you’re gone
(Drowning in the memories of ya')
I’m so cold in California
(Cold and freezing in California)
It’s an Eskimo Summer now you’re gone
(Dreaming of the next time I hold ya')
Feel your absence like a hug
Scent of your pillow's like a drug
I can’t eat vanilla ice-cream
‘Cause it tastes of you, my love
Every guy looks just like you
All the surf boys
But none bring me the joy of my boy
WHAT YOU SAY, WHAT YOU SAY, WHAT YOU SAY NOW?
WHAT YOU SAY NOW?
I’ve been dreaming ‘bout ya’, dreaming ‘bout ya
Dreaming 'bout ‘ya
WHAT YOU SAY, WHAT YOU SAY, WHAT YOU SAY NOW?
WHAT YOU SAY NOW?
I’ve been dreaming ‘bout ya’, dreaming ‘bout ya
Dreaming 'bout ya'
Found love on a summer’s breeze
Drunk and swimming in the ocean late at night
Kissing under palm trees
And I saw the sun in your ocean eyes
It’s cold in California
(Oh, you left a cold California)
An Eskimo Summer now you’re gone
(Drowning in the memories of ya')
I’m so cold in California
(Cold and freezing in California)
It’s an Eskimo Summer now you’re gone
(Dreaming of the next time I hold ya')
Oh, you left a cold California
Drowning in the memories of ya'
Cold and freezing in California
Dreaming of the next time I hold ya'
The lyrics of Michelle And Vickie's song "Eskimo" tell the story of a love that was found and lost during a summer romance in California. The song begins with the singer finding someone in a frozen place, searching for a heart. They question what the person is saying, possibly questioning their intentions or feelings. As the seasons change, the good times begin to fade, and the singer feels the need to run away.
The chorus emphasizes the contrast between the coldness of California and the warmth of an Eskimo summer. The singer reminisces about the love they found on a summer's breeze, being intoxicated and swimming in the ocean late at night, and sharing kisses under palm trees. They saw the sun in the other person's eyes, which highlights the happiness and brightness they brought into the singer's life.
The second verse describes the intimacy and connection between the singer and their love interest, comparing it to two passing clouds, ephemeral but deeply felt. Memories are described as bittersweet, and the presence of the other person lingers on the tip of the singer's tongue like a melody. The chorus repeats to emphasize the longing and the coldness the singer feels now that their love is gone.
The bridge adds more emotional depth to the song. The singer feels their love's absence like a hug and is reminded of them through scents and tastes. The mention of vanilla ice cream tasting like the person reflects the association of memories and experiences with them. The final repetition of the chorus amplifies the singer's longing and their dreams about being with their love again.
Overall, "Eskimo" explores themes of love, loss, and longing, capturing the bittersweet essence of a summer romance that has ended.

Found you in a frozen place
I discovered you when you were emotionally closed off and distant
Looking for a heart
Searching for someone who can understand and love you
What you say, what you say, what you say now?
What are your true feelings and intentions?
Seasons come and seasons change
Time passes and circumstances evolve
Good things start to fade
Positive experiences begin to lose their luster
Run away, run away, run away now
Escape from the current situation and emotions
Wrap me in your memories
Envelop me in the recollections of our time together
Weave me in the fabric of your summer skies
Integrate me into the essence of your happiest moments
I’ll write our future in my dreams
I will envision a future with you while I sleep
To keep my body warm on the colder nights
To provide warmth and comfort during lonely times
Found love on a summer’s breeze
Discovered a deep affection in a carefree and romantic atmosphere
Drunk and swimming in the ocean late at night
Intoxicated and joyously immersed in the sea under the moonlight
Kissing under palm trees
Sharing intimate moments beneath tropical foliage
And I saw the sun in your ocean eyes
Your eyes radiated warmth and happiness like the sun
It’s cold in California
Emotionally distant and lonely in a place known for warmth
An Eskimo Summer now you’re gone
The season of love and happiness has ended with your departure
I’m so cold in California
Feeling frozen and isolated in a land of sunshine
Hand in mine just like a glove
Holding hands tightly and fitting perfectly together
Fingerprints of us
Evidence and reminders of our unique connection
Like two passing clouds above
Transient and fleeting, like drifting clouds
A momentary eternity
A brief period that feels everlasting
Never enough
Always craving more of each other's presence and affection
Memories bittersweet
Recollections that evoke both pleasure and pain
And I still taste you on the tip of my tongue
Your essence and flavor remain vivid in my memories
Your face is like a melody
Your image brings forth a harmonious and captivating feeling
It won’t leave my head like a favorite song
I can't stop thinking about you, just like a beloved song
Feel your absence like a hug
The emptiness of your presence is like a tight embrace
Scent of your pillow's like a drug
The fragrance of your pillow has an addictive effect on me
I can’t eat vanilla ice-cream
Even a simple pleasure reminds me of you and becomes difficult
‘Cause it tastes of you, my love
The flavor is filled with the essence of my affection for you
Every guy looks just like you
Every male I see bears resemblance to you
All the surf boys
Specifically referring to attractive surfers
But none bring me the joy of my boy
No one else can bring me the same happiness as you did
I’ve been dreaming ‘bout ya’, dreaming ‘bout ya
I constantly fantasize and yearn for you
Dreaming 'bout ‘ya
Continuing to have dreams and aspirations involving you
Oh, you left a cold California
Your absence has made California feel cold and desolate
Drowning in the memories of ya'
Overwhelmed by the flood of memories about you
Cold and freezing in California
Experiencing emotional coldness and isolation in California
Dreaming of the next time I hold ya'
Anticipating and longing for the next opportunity to embrace you
