When it’s sunny in Seattle and it’s snowing down in New Orleans
And them boys from Amarillo stop wearin’ those boots and jeans
When Memphis ain’t got the blues
That’s when I’ll stop lovin’ you
When it’s sunny in Seattle and it’s snowing down in new Orleans
Baby, I don’t mind you askin’
If there’s gonna come a day
When I’ll say goodbye
Maybe, I guess anything could happen
But it’s as close to never
As you’re ever gonna find
When it’s sunny in Seattle and it’s snowing down in New Orleans
And them boys from Amarillo stop wearin’ those boots and jeans
When there’s no tequila in Mexico
That’s when I’m gonna let you go
When it’s sunny in Seattle and it’s snowing down in New Orleans
Darlin’, some things won’t ever change
My love is one of those things
When New York is a one horse town
That’s when I won’t need you ’round
When it’s sunny in Seattle and it’s snowing down in New Orleans
When it’s sunny in Seattle and it’s snowing down in New Orleans
Exploring the Meaning of “Sunny In Seattle”
“Sunny In Seattle” by Blake Shelton is a heartfelt declaration of unwavering love. The lyrics cleverly use vivid, improbable scenarios—like sunshine in famously rainy Seattle or snow in warm New Orleans—to emphasize the impossibility of the singer ever falling out of love. Each verse builds on these playful contrasts, underscoring a steadfast devotion that endures against all odds. The song’s imagery, from Amarillo cowboys changing their attire to a blues-free Memphis, paints a picture of constants that are just as unlikely to change as the singer’s feelings. Shelton’s smooth delivery and the song’s relatable metaphors make it a memorable ballad about commitment.
