The song’s lyrics reveal a deep sense of melancholy and loss, despite its upbeat tempo and summer setting.
Lines like “Kiss me hard before you go” and “I just wanted you to know that baby, you’re the best” convey a sense of unresolved love and the pain of separation.
The juxtaposition of “summertime” with “sadness” highlights the contrast between the external, vibrant environment and the internal emotional turmoil.
Lana Del Rey’s signature melancholic style is evident throughout, with references to “heaven” and “angels” suggesting a longing for a better, more peaceful place.
The song’s chorus, “I got that summertime, summertime sadness,” reinforces the idea that the joy of summer is overshadowed by personal grief, making it a poignant reflection on the complexities of love and loss.
