Seasons
Safar Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

What a Summer this has been
What a beautiful bad dream
You used to doze off in your chair
We used to smile at you and stare
I remember you were ten feet tall
Now you're broken by the fall
And I cried for you
I thought you should know
That Seasons are foes
What a summer this has been
You didn't get to teach me how to surf the wind
Instead I took you places in my car
And watched you sweetly tear up to Johnnyguitar
I remember I was oh so small
Now I'm broken by the fall And I cried for you thought you should know Seasons
Pass trees they grow




But you never do
So I do it for you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Safar's song Seasons evoke a sense of nostalgia, loss, and growth. The singer reflects on a past summer that was both beautiful and bittersweet. The first stanza sets the tone of the song, with the singer looking back at a time when a loved one was alive but eventually passed away (“Now you're broken by the fall”). The second stanza reflects on missed opportunities, of learning how to surf the wind, which could represent the lost chances and experiences that the singer could have learned from the person who passed away.


The chorus of the song, “Seasons are foes”, could be interpreted as a metaphor for how time can be both an enemy and a friend. Time can bring growth and progress, yet also sadness and loss. The singer acknowledges how they’ve grown from being “oh so small”, but also how they’ve been affected by the absence of the person who had passed away. The last line of the chorus “But you never do, so I do it for you” could be interpreted as a message to the loved one who has passed away. The singer wants to keep growing and experiencing new things in life, and in doing so, embody the memory of the person they’ve lost.


Overall, the song Seasons is a touching reflection on the passing of a loved one and the passage of time. The lyrics remind us that while the loss of someone may be difficult to bear, we can honor their memory by continuing to grow and experience new things.
