Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'll give you everything that you could need
And when you turn around
I see you standing there all alone
I love you
Why won't you see
The night is warm
It's summer in ponyville
You will finally see
Remember me
The cherry tree
You didn't know
It hurt me so
When you said hello
Yesterday
I gave you everything that you could need
And when I turned around
I only saw the sun
I love you
Why won't you see
The day is warm
It's summer in ponyville
You will finally see
Remember me
The cherry tree
You didn't know
It hurt me so
When you said hello
Come to me
I'll give you everything that you could need
And when you turn around
I see you standing there all alone
I love you
Why won't you see
The night is warm
It's summer in ponyville
You will finally see
Remember me
The cherry tree
You didn't know
It hurt me so
When you said hello
You will finally see
Remember me
The cherry tree
You didn't know
It hurt me so
When you said hello
You will finally see
Remember me
The cherry tree
You didn't know
It hurt me so
When you said hello
The lyrics to Sim Gretina feat. Emily Jones's song "Cherry Tree" depict a person who is deeply in love with someone but their affections for them are not being reciprocated. The singer pleads with them to come to them and promises to give them everything that they need. The singer also expresses how they feel when they see the person standing alone and not acknowledging their feelings.
The chorus mentions a "cherry tree" which seems to be a metaphor for the singer's love. They want the other person to finally see and remember their love, just like how one would remember a cherry tree in full bloom. The second verse talks about how the singer gave the person everything they needed but only saw the sun in return. The singer is clearly devastated that their love is not being recognized and feels hurt.
Overall, the song can be seen as a representation of unrequited love and the pain that comes with it. The cherry tree symbolizes the singer's love and their hope that the person will finally realize it.

Really like this song. Nice work! I wish the vocals were a little clearer -- not sure if that's a mic issue or a mixing issue, though. Still, it's really a nice, relaxing tune.

For some reason, this song makes me feel weirdly nostalgic. It makes me long for summers past...

This song, along with What Your Friendship Means to Me, give me an extremely strong sense of nostalgia that not many other things can. Thank you so much Sim for these masterpieces that I'll never forget.

i was trying to fall asleep when i heard this song for the first time. and my brain started to create that type of scene (from non-existing show), where evil won and everithing goes darker and more hopeless. don't know why this song fits perfectly to this situation for me.

I've kind of fallen in love with this song, particularly the remix on the full album. For some reason, it just... stirs chords in my heart, the lyrics, the tone... simply beautiful. And for some reason, the voice modulation adds something to it for me... I dunno, I'm just gushing right now, but I love this song.
