Forever Summer
Paul Brandt Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Feet on the dashboard, hair whippin' in the wind
Sun on her skin
I can feel the freedom I ain't known since I was a child
Cut offs, bikini tops, sunglasses from the five and dime
Ah, you blow my mind
So crank a song on the radio, flash your rear view mirror smile
Turn it up, turn it up, this could be a forever summer
Who knows if we're gonna get another
Day like this in a while

Whoa

Burn it up, burn it up, mix a little bit of get there faster
With some slow it down and make it last
Maybe make this the time of our lives

Well we got so hot it hit us like a hurricane
Never been the same
All we did is hold on for dear life after that
If clouds rush in all I've gotta do is see your face
And the seasons change
And a beautiful day comes back
Turn it up, turn it up, this could be a forever summer
Who knows if we're gonna get another
Day like this in a while

Whoa

Burn it up, burn it up, mix a little bit of get there faster
With some slow it down and make it last
Baby, make this the time of our lives
There'd be nothing better than always together
So let's don't let go 'till it's summer forever

Whoa

Turn it up, turn it up, this could be a forever summer
Who knows if we're gonna get another
Day like this in a while

Whoa

Burn it up, burn it up, mix a little bit of get there faster
With some slow it down and make it last
Maybe make this the time of our lives

Burn it up, burn it up, mix a little bit of get there faster
With some slow it down and make it last
Maybe make this the time of our lives

Whoa





Oh, the time of our lives, yeah

Overall Meaning

In "Forever Summer" by Paul Brandt, the singer transports us to a nostalgic summer day filled with freedom and adventure. It starts with the singer describing a scene of carefree happiness where he's cruising with a special someone with the wind in their hair, feet on the dashboard, and the sun on their skin, and he can feel the freedom he hasn't known since he was a child. He's enjoying the simple pleasures of life with his partner, who blows his mind, and they are basking in the sun while wearing cutoffs, bikini tops, and sunglasses. They are living in the moment, listening to loud music on the radio and getting lost in the scenery.


However, as the song progresses, it becomes apparent that the singer is not taking this moment for granted. He recognizes the transience of life and describes how easily something that seems this perfect can come to an end. The inevitability of change looms as he notes that a day like this may not come around for a while. Still, he remains present, and he wants to make this day last as long as possible, blending the intoxicating mix of feeling the wind in your hair while taking your time.


The chorus repeats phrases like "Turn it up, turn it up," and "Burn it up, burn it up," which emphasize the importance of soaking up the moment as much as possible. The singer's ultimate goal is to create an endless summer, where the memories of that perfect day last forever.
