Lyrics
- Some years ago
- I lived a hard life
- But sunlight burst a ray
- Through those clouds
- We've finally seen the back
- Of those grey days
- Please let the summer back to stay
- And hold the sunbird in your hands
- Don't let him sing too sweet
- For too soon the summer sun
- Will be in a winter sleep
- And hold the sunbird in your hands
- Don't let him sing too sweet
- For too soon the summer sun
- Will be in a winter sleep
- You found yourself on the road
- Inside your winter coat
- But leave your troubles behind, now
- You wrap yourself in a ball
- Then hide away from it all
- But let the sunbird in your heart
- And hold the sunbird in your hands
- Don't let him sing too sweet
- For too soon the summer sun
- Will be in a winter sleep
- And hold the sunbird in your hands
- Don't let him sing too sweet
- For too soon the summer sun
- Will be in a winter sleep
- OooooOoooOooo (x6)
- And hold the sunbird in your hands
- Don't let him sing too sweet
- For too soon the summer sun
- Will be in a winter sleep
Interpretation
The song is used in the trailer for "Chrysalis" going free. This made the game available to more players, and for someone it may have been a reason to replay it. The first verse makes a reference to how the game has helped players through hard times. Immediately after a request is made for summer, i.e. happiness, to return.[1] The song tells us to appreciate the happy moments in life,[2] but not too much, as they might end quickly.[3] The game is short, but despite that, it still provides a way to forget about everyday problems for a moment and lose yourself in a fictional world.[4]
