They experienced a passionate summer together but eventually grew tired of each other. He wonders why she packed her bags and what her intentions were. He reflects on the changing seasons and longs for the love he lost, realizing that it only feels real after a storm and hearts only heal after breaking. Despite it all, she never questioned him and he knows that she would always find a way into his heart even if he tried to shut her out.
