Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I′m not the one, I'm just trouble
And I′m holding on to something I can't have
You're leading me into darkness
And you′re telling me, oh something different like

You know that I want to believe that′s true
I know the words you're saying
You know that I need to believe that′s true
And I know you have your reasons, but I

I won't change with the seasons
I′m just moving, moving on
And you can't change how you′re feeling
I should've known

You need to change your opinions on me
I need to give my love to someone new

You know that I want to believe that's true
I know the words you′re saying
You know that I need to believe that′s true
And I know you have your reasons, but I

I won't change with the seasons
I′m just moving, moving on
And you can't change how you′re feeling
I should've known

I won′t change with the seasons
I'm just moving, moving on
I should've known

I won′t change with the seasons
I′m just moving, moving on
And you can't change how you′re feeling
I should've known

I won′t change with the seasons
I'm just moving, moving on




And you can′t change how you're feeling
I should've known

Overall Meaning

The Night Café's "You Change with the Seasons" is a song about a relationship that has lost its sustaining power. The singer admits to being troublesome but is holding on to something they can't have. The partner is leading them into darkness and saying different things at different times, making it hard for the singer to believe anything. The singer tries to believe that their partner's words are true, but they can't ignore the fact that the relationship is not working. They refuse to change their feelings and move on with life even though their partner seems to be changing with the seasons.


The lyrics suggest that the singer needs to change their opinion of themselves, and their partner needs to change their opinion of the singer. The singer wants to give their love to someone new and leave the troubled relationship behind. They won't change with the seasons, meaning they won't adapt to the changes their partner is making. They are determined to move on and not let their partner's changing opinion affect their feelings. The repetition of "I should have known" at the end of each verse suggests regret for not realizing the relationship's problems earlier.


In conclusion, "You Change with the Seasons" is a poignant song about a relationship that is losing its essence. It's about a one-sided relationship that cannot sustain itself and is doomed to end sooner or later. It's a reminder that no matter how much we want to hold on to something or someone, sometimes it's better to let go and move on.
