Summer's
The Lightings Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I remember the day I left
You said you'd write to me
Well it's been six months
I haven't gotten a single message
And I think I've had an epiphany
Or the countless shrines that I see
Nights so cold you can feel your pulse
Trees so tall you can't see the sun
I miss the nights in your living room
I had no idea they'd be gone so soon
You said you'd always be right with me
Well I'm starting to feel awfully lonely
The lyrics of The Lighting's song "Summer's" convey a sense of longing and loneliness after a period of time has passed since a significant event or relationship. The song's protagonist reflects on the summer from the previous year, recalling how they departed from someone they cared about deeply. At the time, the person they left promised to maintain communication through letters.
However, six months have gone by, and the singer realizes that they have not received a single message from this individual. This absence of correspondence leads to a revelation, or an epiphany, that something significant has changed or been lost. The lack of communication may make the singer feel neglected or forgotten.
The lyrics further suggest that the singer is currently in a forest, which seems to have a profound impact on them. They encounter various shrines, which could symbolize devotion or remembrance, perhaps reminding them of the person they left behind. The nights in this forest are described as extremely cold, to the point where one can feel their pulse. This imagery creates a sense of isolation and discomfort, emphasizing the emotional toll of being alone.
The tall trees in the forest obstruct the sun, further adding to the feelings of darkness and desolation. The contrast between the warmth and intimacy of the nights spent in the living room of the person they miss and the current state of loneliness is stark. These nights are mentioned as having unexpectedly vanished or ended too quickly, contrasting with the assurance the person gave about always being there for the singer. As a result, the singer is left feeling extremely lonely and possibly questioning the sincerity of the promises made.
Overall, these lyrics capture the emotions of longing, solitude, and disappointment that arise when someone departs and a promised connection is not maintained. The forest symbolizes the changed circumstances and the emotional impact they have on the singer, ultimately leading to a strong sense of isolation and yearning for the past.

Last summer wasn't that long ago
It feels like just yesterday when last summer happened
I remember the day I left
The memory of the day I departed is still vivid in my mind
You said you'd write to me
You promised to send me letters
Well it's been six months
It has been half a year
I haven't gotten a single message
Not even a single communication has reached me
And I think I've had an epiphany
I suddenly had a realization
I don't know what this forest is doing to me
I am uncertain about the effect this forest has on me
Or the countless shrines that I see
There are numerous sacred places I come across
Nights so cold you can feel your pulse
The nights are incredibly freezing to the point that you can sense your heartbeat
Trees so tall you can't see the sun
The trees are towering, obstructing the view of the sun
I miss the nights in your living room
I long for the evenings spent in your living room
I had no idea they'd be gone so soon
I never anticipated their absence to come so quickly
You said you'd always be right with me
You made a promise to constantly stay by my side
Well I'm starting to feel awfully lonely
Now, I am beginning to experience intense loneliness

Summer nights
Flashing lights
Give me love and give me life

When the DJ's spinning, everybody out on the dance floor singing
Give me love and give me life
When the DJ's spinning, everybody out on the dance floor singing
[Chorus]
Hey oh! Way oh!
Summer love makes me feel all right
These are the best days of my life
Hey oh! Way oh!
Summer love makes me feel all right
These are the best days of my life
Hey oh! (Summer nights)
Way oh! (Flashing lights)
Summer love makes me feel all right
These are the best days of my life
Hey oh! (Give me love)
Way oh! (And give me life)
Summer love makes me feel all right
These are the best days of my life

We need actual radio stations with this music, there is so much synth wave music to fill hours and hours of music.
