Blueberries
Sabrina Carpenter Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Dandelions are goin' to seed
It's my soul I need to feed
Trees stand so tall and bare
And here I stand without a care

Pumpkin seeds stuck in my teeth
There's something more I need to be
More than just a silly girl
Waiting for the sun to hurl

Rays of sunlight
Down the sidewalk, down on me
Casting light on
The turning leaves and what I'm supposed to see

Winter's here and settled in
But where are you? I can't begin
To imagine where I went wrong
Perhaps it was when I started this song

Rays of sunlight
Reflecting off the snowflakes
There are no more crinkly leaves
I need to rake
There's a chance
A chance I need to take

Birds and bees are here again
We haven't talked since God knows when
I like to dance in the sprouting grass
If it snows again then I'll have to ask...

Why the hell are
The seasons fickle just like you?
Rip my heart in half
I'll stitch it up if it's certain we are through

Junebugs, butterflies, sand in my pants
Midnight moon and those pesky little ants
You're here once more to try your luck
Well, I'm done with you, you sneaky little...

Now it's over
There's nothing left for us to do
Besides acknowledging the repelling forces
That are me and you

Line by Line Meaning

Dandelions are goin' to seed
Summer is coming to an end and nature is changing


It's my soul I need to feed
I need to take care of myself and my inner being


Trees stand so tall and bare
The trees have shed their leaves and are left standing tall and naked


And here I stand without a care
I'm standing here without worrying about what's to come


Pumpkin seeds stuck in my teeth
Something is bothering me and I can't shake it off


There's something more I need to be
I need to become more than what I am now


More than just a silly girl
I want to be taken seriously instead of being seen as an immature girl


Waiting for the sun to hurl
I'm not waiting for anything or anyone anymore


Rays of sunlight
The sun's rays shine down on me


Down the sidewalk, down on me
The sun's rays reflect on the path I'm walking on


Casting light on
Illuminating


The turning leaves and what I'm supposed to see
The changing leaves remind me to look at things from a different perspective


Winter's here and settled in
Winter has arrived and is here to stay for a while


But where are you? I can't begin
I'm missing someone but don't know where they are


To imagine where I went wrong
I don't know what I did to make things go wrong


Perhaps it was when I started this song
Maybe writing this song caused things to change


Reflecting off the snowflakes
The sunlight reflects off the snowflakes on the ground


There are no more crinkly leaves
All the leaves have fallen off the trees


I need to rake
I have to clean up the leaves


There's a chance
There's a possibility


A chance I need to take
I need to take a risk


Birds and bees are here again
Spring is arriving and the birds and bees are coming out


We haven't talked since God knows when
I haven't talked to you in a really long time


I like to dance in the sprouting grass
I enjoy dancing in the new spring grass


If it snows again then I'll have to ask...
I'm not sure what I'll do if it snows again


The seasons fickle just like you?
Are you as unpredictable as the changing seasons?


Rip my heart in half
I feel heartbroken


I'll stitch it up if it's certain we are through
If our relationship is truly over, I'll try to move on and fix my heart


Junebugs, butterflies, sand in my pants
Summer is coming and I'll be spending time outside with nature


Midnight moon and those pesky little ants
Even at night, nature is still alive with activity


You're here once more to try your luck
You're trying to come back into my life


Well, I'm done with you, you sneaky little...
I'm finished with you and don't want anything to do with you


Now it's over
Our relationship is finished


There's nothing left for us to do
We've reached the end and there's nothing more to say or do


Besides acknowledging the repelling forces
We need to acknowledge that we are no longer good for each other


That are me and you
Our personalities and desires are not compatible
