Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't let them throw it asway
'Cause inside something solid gold
so don't let them throw it away
Words they mean nothing
so you can't hurt me
I said words they mean nothing
So you can't stop me
Words they meant nothing
So you can't hurt me
I said words they mean nothing
So you can't stop me
I said your eyes, they say nothing
So you can't hurt me
On summer days like these
I said words they mean nothing
So you can't hurt me
Follow your own path from here
So don't listen to what they say
Cause inside you've a heart of gold
So don't let them take this away
Words they meant nothing
So you can't hurt me
On summer days like these
I said words they mean nothing
So you can't stop me
On summer days like these
I said your eyes, they say nothing
So you can't fault me
I said words they mean nothing
So you can't hurt me
Inside a heart of pure soul
A sun rising and falling away, like your soul
Cause here comes something wonderful
So don't let them throw it away
Words they meant nothing
So you can't hurt me
On summer days like these
I said words they mean nothing
So you can't stop me
On summer days like these
I said your eyes, they say nothing
So you can't stop me
On summer days like these
I said words they mean nothing
So you can't hurt me

The song ends with a call to embrace something "wonderful," a reminder to focus on the positive aspects of life and to keep pushing forward.
