Summer
Vistas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The seasons when it starts to snow
We fell like leaves, we turned to gold
But I know that you're the same
And I can feel
The way you did and I do still
'Cause I would bide my time until
'Cause it's the summer
Watch the way the wind blows
'Cause it's the summer
Watch the way the wind blows
I can feel
These echoes of my younger days
In Parisian alleyways
But I can see the change (change, change)
And I hope you feel
The way I do and always will
'Cause I just took some time until
On naked skin I feel the rain, rain, rain
'Cause it's the summer
Watch the way the wind blows
'Cause it's the summer
Watch the way the wind blows
'Cause it's the summer
Watch the way the wind blows
'Cause it's the summer
Watch the way the wind blows
'Cause it's the summer
Watch the way the wind blows
'Cause it's the summer
Watch the way the wind blows
I can feel ('cause it's the summer)
I can feel (watch the way the wind blows)
I can feel ('cause it's the summer)
I can feel (watch the way the wind blows)
The lyrics of Vistas's song Summer capture the feeling of nostalgia and reflection that often accompanies the changing of seasons. The opening lines describe the transition from autumn to winter, comparing the falling leaves to the passing of time. The singer then turns their attention to the past, reminiscing about their younger days in Paris and the ways in which they have changed since then. However, the constant throughout is the singer's love for someone who has remained the same, despite the passing of time.
The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "watch the way the wind blows" as a metaphor for the fleeting nature of life and the changing of seasons. It's a reminder to appreciate the present moment and the people around us, as everything is constantly in flux.
The song's overall message is one of acceptance and gratitude for the past and present, with a hopeful outlook for the future. The singer acknowledges that life is unpredictable and constantly changing, but finds comfort in the enduring relationships and memories that sustain them.
