Spring
Miette Hope Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Maybe it was too much
For either of us to comprehend
You don't want to see the end
So maybe if we're friends, this won't become stagnant
And I've been waiting for so long
But it does not feel wrong
The winter stole the sun
How much of my weight will make your ice break
Tell me what it will take
For you to crack and let me in
Slipping on the surface of your thick skin
I just want to fall in
I will have to wait till spring
I will have to wait till spring
Don't pretend like you don't care
Although you might be scared
To let your feelings show
Know that I have felt the same
But I won't play your game
I'll say exactly what's on my mind
This could be something so real
So tell me how you feel
The winter stole the sun
It's bound to come so
How much of my weight will make your ice break
Tell me what it will take
For you to crack and let me in
Slipping on the surface of your thick skin
I just want to fall in
I will have to wait till spring
I will have to wait till spring
And I know,
You've been thinking of it every day
And I won't go
Till you try to push me away
And I'll be fine,
Knowing that all good things come in time so
How much of my weight will make your ice break
Tell me what it will take
For you to crack and let me in
Slipping on the surface of your thick skin
I just want to fall in
I will have to wait till spring
Oh how much of my weight will make your ice break
Tell me what it will take
For you to crack and let me in
Slipping on the surface of your thick skin
I will have to wait till spring
I will have to wait till spring
In "Spring", Miette Hope tells a story of a relationship that has lost its spark and the struggle to reconnect. The song opens with the line "We were falling out of touch", a recognition that the couple's distance is a shared experience. The verse continues with "Maybe it was too much for either of us to comprehend". This suggests that the relationship was overwhelmed by outside pressures that neither party fully understood.
Hope continues with, "You don't want to see the end, so maybe if we're friends, this won't become stagnant". This line introduces the idea that the couple is trying to salvage what's left of their relationship by being friends. Hope understands that friendship might not be enough to reignite the romance, but it's the best chance they have. In the chorus, she states her desire to dive deep into the relationship by asking, "How much of my weight will make your ice break? Tell me what it will take for you to crack and let me in". "Slipping on the surface of your thick skin, I just want to fall in" shows that Hope is willing to be vulnerable and take a risk for the sake of love. She understands that it might not be possible to reignite the relationship until spring, which symbolizes a time of rebirth and new beginnings.
In the second verse, Hope calls out her partner's hesitancy: "Don't pretend like you don't care, although you might be scared to let your feelings show". She's asking them to take off their emotional armor and show what's underneath. Hope knows that this requires bravery and shows her own courage, saying, "Know that I have felt the same, but I won't play your game. I'll say exactly what's on my mind".
The bridge is a plea to her partner to give the relationship a chance. Hope sings, "And I know, you've been thinking of it every day. And I won't go till you try to push me away. And I'll be fine, knowing that all good things come in time". Hope is reminding them of the strength and resilience of love, and that with patience, they can overcome anything.

I met someone 7-months ago who has had me feeling like what this song is about!!
"We were falling out of touch, maybe it was too much for either of us to comprehend.
You don't wanna see the end, so maybe if we're friends this won't become stagnant.
And I've been waiting for so long, but it does not feel wrong.
The Winter stole the sun. She's bound to come"
"How much of my weight will make your ice break.
Tell me what it will take for you to crack and let me in?
Slipping on the surface of your thick skin....
"And I'll be fine... knowing that all good things come in time"
"I just wanna fall in. I will have to wait till Spring."
