When I Fall Asleep
The Blue Season Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Do you remember we swore it was forever?
The times I had to leave?
I remember I said I'll soon be coming back
I remember as the days turned black
When I turned away from you
As the rain falls, as the snow melts
As the summer leaves, as the winter cries
We will know that they never will tear us apart
In the darkness I can hear your heart
In the darkness I can hear your heart
Your heart crying out for me
I will be back... back in the summertime
I will be back when you are mine...
When the world sees that you are mine
As the seas rise, as our land drowns
Our love will grow deeper inside of us
As the summer leaves, as the winter cries
We will know that they never will tear us apart
As the rain falls, as the snow melts
Our love will grow deeper inside of us
As the summer leaves, as the winter cries
We will know that they never will tear us apart
"When I Fall Asleep" by The Blue Season is a love ballad that reminisces about a past relationship and the promise of a future reunion. The lyrics express the singer's longing to be reunited with their loved one, despite the challenges and obstacles that may come their way. The first verse starts with a question, asking if the other person remembers the times they were together, and the promises made to each other that their love would last forever. The next line talks about how the singer had to leave, but promised to return soon. The following lines describe the feeling of sadness and darkness that comes with being away from the one they love.
In the chorus, the lyrics compare their love to the changing seasons. The love they share grows stronger even as the elements around them change. The rain, the snow, the summer, and the winter all represent the passing of time, but their love remains constant through it all. The second verse echoes the sentiment of the first, with similar lyrics about the heartache of being apart, followed by the hope of a future reunion. The bridge repeats the chorus with a slight variation, replacing the seasons with the elements of the earth - the rising seas and the drowning land - yet the love remains unwavering.

Just to be that guy that touches on the art conversation.
I think art is something that inspires the inner child in you, the wholesome potential of human beings being revealed to the experiencer.
There are other things that have artistic elements about them, but those structures reflecting what I first said, is what art is about.
