Summer
The Dingees Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When the days grow long and it smells sweet outside
Sit on the steps with some things to spare
Chat with Chomes about the things in our future
And you know that we go crazy
And you know that its summertime
All our trouble, it's still all the same
But in summertime it just don't seem that way
How do you feel? Do you feel unreal?
Things aren't what they seem in this summer dream
Trouble just can't steal a feeling so unreal
The Dingees's song Summer is a nostalgic and upbeat tribute to the joys of summer. The opening lines evoke the sensory experiences of summer, with longer days and sweet scents in the air. The different ways to spend summer afternoons, such as sitting on the steps with friends and chatting about future goals, are also highlighted in the lyrics. The song acknowledges that summer brings its own kind of craziness, a hyperactive and carefree energy that enables people to break from routine and enjoy the season. Even though our troubles persist, there is something about the long, hot days of summer that makes them feel a little bit easier to bear.
The chorus captures the heat and restlessness of summertime, emphasizing how it can make it difficult to sleep at night. Despite the uncomfortable physical sensation, the song suggests that summer has a way of muting life's difficulties and reminding us of the things that make us feel alive. The lines "Trouble just can't steal a feeling so unreal" are particularly poignant, suggesting that the highs of summer are not just fleeting but also operate on a different plane than our everyday concerns.
