Hurricane
Bridgit Mendler - Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Think the clouds are clogging up my brain
Like the weather drain same as the tears on my face
And I'm stuck up in the storm I
I guess I'll be alright
Oh (uh oh uh oh)
Oh oh (uh oh uh oh)
Then it hits me like
Oh (uh oh uh oh)
Oh no (uh oh uh oh uh uh oh)

And all that wind that swept me off my feet
Got me flying til I'm crying and I'm down on my knees
That's what Dorothy was afraid of
The sneaky tornado
Oh (uh oh uh oh)
Oh oh (uh oh uh oh)
There's no place like home (uh oh uh oh)
Home (uh oh uh oh uh uh oh)

I'm boarding up the windows locking up my heart
It's like every time the wind blows
I feel it tearing us apart every time he smiles
I let him in again everything is fine
When you're standing in the eye of the hurricane
Here comes the sun, here comes the rain
Standing in the eye of the hurricane
Here comes the sun, here comes the rain
Standing in the eye of the hurricane

I'm flopping on my bed like a flying squirrel
Like a little girl hurt by the big bad world
Yeah it's twisting up my insides
Can't hide it on the outside
Oh (uh oh uh oh)
Oh oh (uh oh uh oh)
Yeah it hits me like
Oh (uh oh uh oh)
Oh no (uh oh uh oh uh uh oh)

And that's when you hold me, you hold me
You tell me that you know me, I'll never be lonely
Say we made it through the storm now
But I'm still on the look out
Oh (uh oh uh oh)
Oh oh (uh oh uh oh)
The air's getting cold (uh oh uh oh)
Cold

I'm boarding up the windows locking up my heart
It's like every time the wind blows
I feel it tearing us apart
Every time he smiles I let him in again
Everything is fine
When you're standing in the eye of the hurricane
Here comes the sun, here comes the rain
Standing in the eye of the hurricane
Here comes the sun, here comes the rain
Standing in the eye of the hurricane

He picks me up like
He's got the way of the hurricane
And think I'm fine like I'm in the eye of the hurricane
He picks me up like
He's got the way of the hurricane
And think I'm fine like I'm in the eye of the hurricane
And I'm floating, floating
And I don't know it, know it
And I'm gonna drop
He's got the way, he's got the way

I'm boarding up the windows Locking up my heart
It's like every time the wind blows
I feel it tearing us apart
Every time he smiles I let him in again
Everything is fine
When you're standing in the eye of the hurricane
Here comes the sun, here comes the rain
Standing in the eye of the hurricane
Here comes the sun, here comes the rain
Standing in the eye of the hurricane

He picks me up like
He's got the way of the hurricane
And think I'm fine like I'm in the eye of the hurricane
He picks me up like
He's got the way of the hurricane




And think I'm fine like I'm in the eye of the hurricane
He's got the way

Overall Meaning

The song "Hurricane" by Bridgit Mendler is an emotive ballad that captures the internal conflict of a person battling their emotions. The opening lines set the tone for the song, painting a picture of confusion and turmoil caused by feeling trapped and overwhelmed. The comparison to weather and tears indicates that the source of the trouble could be from outside sources or something internal. The chorus uses the metaphor of a hurricane to describe the tumultuous situation, with the singer feeling like they’re caught in the eye of the storm.


The second verse is where the song's message becomes more personal, focusing on the singer’s relationship with another person. The lyrics suggest that the singer is struggling to maintain a connection with their loved one. Every time they smile, the singer lets them in again, but the wind, a metaphor for turbulence in their relationship, always threatens to tear them apart. The idea of boarding up the windows and locking up the heart implies a measure of self-protection but also a missed opportunity for intimacy. The bridge suggests that the singer has found someone who can provide some respite from the turmoil, but they’re still wary about whether they have really made it through the storm.


Overall, the song touches on universal themes of love, vulnerability, and emotional turmoil. The metaphor of a hurricane is used to great effect, with the wind and rain representing the challenges that threaten to destroy the singer's emotional well-being. The song's recurring imagery of the eye of the storm conveys a sense of being stuck in a state of chaos, but it ends with a hint of optimism as the lines "here comes the sun, here comes the rain" signals a hope for renewal.
