Song Review: Seasons Bebe Rexha Ft Dolly Parton
Bebe Rexha has enlisted global country icon Dolly Parton for her brand-new song, “Seasons.”
Rexha, Ido Zmishlany and Sarah Solovay co-wrote the deeply personal song, which finds both singers contemplating life’s ups and downs and how they’re navigating them within.
“I lie awake inside a dream / And I run, run, run away from me / The seasons change right under my feet / I’m still the same, same, same, same old me,” Rexha confesses in the tender and pensive chorus as Parton harmonizes.
Parton then flies solo in the second verse as she ruminates on the lost state of her inner child.
“My mirror is a liar / Inside, I’m still a child / Who’s tryin’ to find her way back home / How come nobody warns us / About what’s coming for us / That you will live and die alone,” she sings.
Rexha and Parton’s release is also accompanied by a no-frills, monochromatic music video of them delivering their duet together in black outfits, first, before switching to white outfits.
“Seasons” appears on Rexha’s just-released third album, Bebe. This is the second time Rexha has collaborated with a country artist. Her first venture into the genre was with Florida Georgia Line in 2017 for their RIAA-certified Diamond hit, “Meant to Be.”
Seasons Lyrics
Two, three
I lie awake inside a dream
And I run, run, run away from me
The seasons change right under my feet
I’m still the same, same, same, same old me, aha
And everyone around me
Oh, yeah, they seem so grounded
But I can’t seem to catch myself
My heart starts beatin’ loudly
I know that I’m surrounded
But I’m too proud to ask for help
I lie awake inside a dream
And I run, run, run away from me
The seasons change right under my feet
I’m still the same, same, same, same old me
Aha (Aha)
Ooh-ooh (Ooh-ooh)
My mirror is a liar
Inside, I’m still a child
Who’s tryin’ to find her way back home
How come nobody warns us
About what’s coming for us
That you will live and die alone
I lie awake inside a dream
And I run, run, run away from me
The seasons change right under my feet
I’m still the same, same, same, same old me
Aha (Aha, oh)
The season’s changin’ now
The leaves are turnin’ brown
The snow is fallin’ down (The snow is fallin’)
The sun is comin’ out (The season’s changin’)
I feel it all now (I feel it)
I feel it all now (I feel it)
I feel it, I feel it, I
I lie awake inside a dream
And I run, run, run away from me
The seasons change right under my feet
I’m still the same, same, same, same old me
