They tell me to stop

You're hurting yourself

But if my head hurts

It's 'cause everything leads me back to you

And I'm sick of seeing your eyes

When I close mine

We didn't fall behind

Just another path

Same color as before

But less light

I'd like to write other words

But we only read in dreams

And I know

All this must surely make you laugh

But give me time

To hear those smiles

So don't stop

No, my head doesn't hurt anymore

I only see you now

You must think it's dumb

And don't worry

Lift your head, the sky's blue

Count one, two, three

Three and everything'll be better

But the sun sets

And everything starts again

Listen to them, my gray dreams

Fly off into the dark of night

And I've spent so much time

Writing all these lines

And I'm still hesitant

Is this really useful?

It's true time flies

But that's easy to say

I've got the feeling

That it's only slowing down

And I've spent so much time

Writing all these lines

And I'm still hesitant

Is this really useful?

It's true time flies

But that's easy to say

I've got the feeling

That it's only slowing down

If we want we can

It's on repeat, stop it

We know it's true

But I want something more concrete

I'd like to swim in the rain

And make the wind fly

I could write you poems

But it'd make no sense

So let me see it

Dance till it's worn out

I wanna get back all, all

All our summer nights

All those memories

I could write for hours

And I won't let you down

I'll push our tears away

So don't stop

No, my head doesn't hurt anymore

I only see you now

You must think it's dumb

But it's okay

I think I can fall asleep peacefully

Now that I've written this

Everything feels easier

And the sun sets

And everything starts again

Listen to them, my gray dreams

Fly off into the dark of night

And I've spent so much time

Writing all these lines

And I'm still hesitant

Is this really useful?

It's true time flies

But that's easy to say

I've got the feeling

That it's only slowing down

And I've spent so much time

Writing all these lines

And I'm still hesitant

Is this really useful?

It's true time flies

But that's easy to say

I've got the feeling

That it's only slowing down

SONG MEANING

Nuits D’été whisks us into that bittersweet moment when summer is over but your heart is still spinning in its heat. Swedish artist Oscar Anton and French vocalist Clémentine trade verses like confessions in the dark: headaches, late-night doubts, and pages of half-written poems all circle back to one person who just won’t leave the narrator’s mind. The lyrics jump between French and English, daylight and dusk, as they count un, deux, trois to calm the storm, only to feel time slow down again when memories of “all our summer nights” flood in.

Yet the song isn’t just a sigh of heartbreak—it’s a promise of resilience. Writing becomes therapy, dancing until exhaustion feels like freedom, and every sunset offers a fresh restart. By the final chorus, the narrator’s headache lifts, dreams take flight, and what once hurt now fuels hope. It’s a dreamy, lo-fi pop postcard that reminds us how nostalgia can sting and soothe at the same time, turning yesterday’s pain into tomorrow’s creative spark.
