Summer Son
Texas Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm tired of telling the story
Tired of telling it your way
Yeh, I know what I saw
I know that I found the floor

Before you take my heart, reconsider
Before you take my heart, reconsider
I've opened the door
I've opened the door

Here comes the summer's son
He burns my skin
I ache again
I'm over you

I thought I had a dream to hold
Maybe that has gone
Your hands reach out and touch me still
But this feels so wrong

Before you take my heart, reconsider
Before you take my heart, reconsider
I've opened the door
I've opened the door

Here comes the summer's son
He burns my skin
I ache again
I'm over you

Here comes the winter's rain
To cleanse my skin
I wake again
I'm over you

Before you take my heart, reconsider
Before you take my heart, reconsider
I've opened the door
I've opened the door

Here comes the summer's son
He burns my skin
I ache again
I'm over you

Here comes the winter's rain
To cleanse my skin
I wake again
I'm over you

(I'm over you)
Here comes the summer's son
He burns my skin (I'm over you)
I ache again
I'm over you

(I'm over you)
Here comes the winter's rain
To cleanse my skin (I'm over you)
I wake again (I'm over you)
I'm over you





(I'm over you)
Here comes the summer's son

Line by Line Meaning

I'm tired of telling the story
I'm exhausted from repeatedly recounting my version of events


Tired of telling it your way
I'm fed up with being forced to narrate the situation from your perspective


Yeh, I know what I saw
I have complete clarity about what I witnessed


I know that I found the floor
I vividly recall falling to the ground


Before you take my heart, reconsider
I implore you to think twice before stealing my affection


I've opened the door
I've given you access to my heart


Here comes the summer's son
The offspring of the season of warmth is approaching


He burns my skin
The sun's rays inflict harm upon my flesh


I ache again
I experience emotional agony anew


I'm over you
I've moved on from our relationship


I thought I had a dream to hold
I believed that I had an ideal to cherish


Maybe that has gone
Perhaps that aspiration has vanished


Your hands reach out and touch me still
Your physical contact lingers


But this feels so wrong
But your touch doesn't feel right to me anymore


Here comes the winter's rain
The precipitation of the colder season is coming


To cleanse my skin
To purify my body


I wake again
I stir from my slumber


Here comes the summer's son
The offspring of the season of warmth is approaching


He burns my skin (I'm over you)
The sun's rays inflict harm upon my flesh (I've moved on from our relationship)


I ache again
I experience emotional agony anew


I'm over you
I've moved on from our relationship


Here comes the winter's rain
The precipitation of the colder season is coming


To cleanse my skin (I'm over you)
To purify my body (I've moved on from our relationship)


I wake again (I'm over you)
I stir from my slumber (I've moved on from our relationship)


I'm over you
I've moved on from our relationship
