Well, it's time to begin as the summer sets in
It's the scene you set for new lovers
You play your part, painting in a new start
But each gate will open another

June, July and August said
"It's probably hard to plan ahead"
June, July and August said
"It's better to bask in each others"

Gatekeeper, seasons wait for your nod
Gatekeeper, you held your breath
Made the summer go on and on

Well, they tried to stay in from the cold and wind
Making love and making their dinner
Only to find out the love that they grew
In the summer froze

February, April said
"Don't be fooled by that summer again"
February, April said
"That half of the year, well, we'll never be friends"

Gatekeeper, seasons wait for your nod
Gatekeeper, you held your breath
Made the winter go on and on

Gatekeeper, gatekeeper, gatekeeper
Seasons wait for your nod

    simplified it's about summer lust? maybe summer romance where time is spent together before school begins and work loads up in winter. and things die maybe? things die in winter the gatekeeper lets the love in? he stands at the gate methinks
