November rain
(gnrworld.com) Guns N' Roses Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I look into your eyes
I can see a love restrained
But darlin' when I hold you
Don't you know I feel the same

'Cause nothin' lasts forever
And we both know hearts can change
And it's hard to hold a candle
In the cold November rain

We've been through this such a long long time
Just tryin' to kill the pain
But lovers always come and lovers always go
An no one's really sure who's lettin' go today
Walking away

If we could take the time
To lay it on the line
I could rest my head
Just knowin' that you were mine
All mine

So if you want to love me
Then darlin' don't refrain
Or I'll just end up walkin'
In the cold November rain

Do you need some time on your own
Do you need some time all alone
Everybody needs some time on their own

Don't you know you need some time all alone
I know it's hard to keep an open heart
When even friends seem out to harm you
But if you could heal a broken heart
Wouldn't time be out to charm you

Sometimes I need some time on my own
Sometimes I need some time all alone
Everybody needs some time on their own
Don't you know you need some time all alone

And when your fears subside
And shadows still remain
I know that you can love me
When there's no one left to blame

So never mind the darkness
We still can find a way
'Cause nothin' lasts forever
Even cold November rain

Don't ya think that you need somebody
Don't ya think that you need someone
Everybody needs somebody




You're not the only one
You're not the only one

Line by Line Meaning

When I look into your eyes
I see that your love is restrained


But darlin' when I hold you
I feel the same


And we both know hearts can change
Nothing lasts forever


And it's hard to hold a candle
It's hard to keep the love burning


In the cold November rain
When times are tough


We've been through this such a long long time
Trying to numb the pain


And no one's really sure who's lettin' go today
Lovers come and go, uncertain of their feelings


If we could take the time
To be honest with each other


To lay it on the line
To speak truthfully


Just knowin' that you were mine
I'd be at peace


Or I'll just end up walkin'
Otherwise I'll leave


In the cold November rain
During tough times


Do you need some time on your own
Do you need space


Everybody needs some time on their own
It's normal to need time alone


I know it's hard to keep an open heart
It's difficult to trust


But if you could heal a broken heart
Time can heal pain


Sometimes I need some time on my own
I also need space sometimes


And when your fears subside
When you're no longer afraid


And shadows still remain
When memories still linger


I know that you can love me
I know you're capable of love


When there's no one left to blame
When we let go of resentment


So never mind the darkness
Don't focus on the negative


We still can find a way
We can still make it work


Even cold November rain
Even during tough times


Everybody needs somebody
Everyone needs someone


You're not the only one
You're not alone

When I look into your eyes
I can see a love restrained
But darlin' when I hold you
Don't you know I feel the same?
Nothin' lasts forever
And we both know hearts can change
And it's hard to hold a candle
In the cold November rain
We've been through this such a long long time
Just tryin' to kill the pain, ooh yeah
Love is always coming, love is always going
No one's really sure who's lettin' go today
Walking away
If we could take the time to lay it on the line
I could rest my head just knowin' that you were mine
All mine
So if you want to love me then darlin' don't refrain
Or I'll just end up walkin' in the cold November rain
Do you need some time on your own?
Do you need some time all alone?
Ooh, everybody needs some time on their own
Ooh, don't you know you need some time all alone
I know it's hard to keep an open heart
When even friends seem out to harm you
But if you could heal a broken heart
Wouldn't time be out to charm you?
Oh, oh, oh
Sometimes I need some time on my own
Sometimes I need some time all alone
Ooh, everybody needs some time on their own
Ooh, don't you know you need some time all alone
And when your fears subside
And shadows still remain, oh yeah
I know that you can love me when there's no one left to blame
So never mind the darkness, we still can find a way
'Cause nothin' lasts forever, even cold November rain
Don't ya think that you need somebody?
Don't ya think that you need someone?
Everybody needs somebody
You're not the only one
You're not the only one
Don't ya think that you need somebody?
Don't ya think that you need someone?
Everybody needs somebody
You're not the only one
You're not the only one
Don't ya think that you need somebody?
Don't ya think that you need someone?
Everybody needs somebody
You're not the only one
You're not the only one
Don't ya think that you need somebody?
Don't ya think that you need someone?
Everybody needs somebody
