Song Meaning of “The Great Snowman” by Bob Luman
The Great Snowman is a song about the passing of time and how it can bring transformation and change in people, seasons, and times of life. It is a reflective look at life as seen through the eyes of the narrator, a young boy, as he reflects on his childhood memories of building a snowman with a special friend. As the snowman melted, the boy lost the memories of this special, innocent time and has been struggling to find a way to get back to that moment and recapture the feelings of love and joy that the snowman represented. He speaks of the sadness of watching times change and wants to freeze time and stay in the moment forever. The song represents the challenges of change that come throughout life and how cherished relationships and moments can make us hungrier for those feelings to stay. It also reminds us to savor special moments as they pass us by and not be taken for granted.
