Here Comes The Sun
Ghost Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's been a long cold lonely winter
Little darling
It feels like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right
Little darling
Little darling
It feels like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Little darling
I feel that ice is slowly melting
Little darling
It feels like years since it's been clear
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right
The opening line of the song seems to describe a world devoid of peace, a world without sound. The phrase "can't you keep the noise down" suggests a desire for quietude, but it is immediately followed by a warning that "Else you gonna make the baby cry." This baby could be a metaphor for the innocent and the peace-loving people, who get hurt by the noise that the world creates. The line "Over split blood heavens anyone would think you had an axe to grind” also indicates that there is a lot of aggression in the world, so much so, that even the heavens are disturbed.
The chorus then introduces the idea of Romans who come with their "steely gaze," causing discomfort and tension. They have "forked tongues" and are tired of the same song, wanting to go home. The lyrics seem to indicate that these Romans could be a reference to those in power, who use their authority to manipulate people and situations to their own advantage. The verses that follow reinforce this idea as well, highlighting the need to hide the swag bag, paint pretty pictures, and quote scriptures to attract people. However, these tactics are nothing but a facade to conceal their desire to fleece people with their "filthy paws".
Overall, the song seems to be a commentary on the state of the world and how people in power manipulate situations and people to gain advantage. The references to "Romans" could be seen as symbolic of oppressive regimes, and the chorus's repetition of wanting to go home could be an allusion to the desire for freedom or a return to more peaceful times.
Line by Line Meaning
World without sound, can't you keep the noise down?
Can you please be silent and not make any noise? Otherwise, you might disturb the baby and make them cry.
'Else you gonna make the baby cry
If you don't stop making noise, the baby will cry.
Over split blood heavens anyone would
Due to the violent conflict and bloodshed, it seems like someone has a personal vendetta.
Think you had an Axe to grind
It appears that you have a hidden motive or agenda to pursue.
Baby, look out here come the Romans
Be careful, because here come the powerful and manipulative people who will use you for their own gain.
With their steely gaze they're climbing on your sofa
They are invading your personal space and exerting their influence on you.
Cheap veneers and a swinging brisk for a heart
They may seem attractive and charming, but their intentions are cold and calculating.
Forked tongues same song we're tired and we wanna go home
They are insincere and say the same things repeatedly. We are exhausted and want to leave.
Hide the swag bag, quick before the tongues wag
Conceal your valuable possessions before rumors start spreading about them.
Cross your heart and claim a noble cause
Promise earnestly and identify with a just reason.
Quote the scriptures, paint your pretty pictures
Use religious texts or attractive imagery to manipulate and control others.
Fleece them with your filthy paws
Exploit them ruthlessly and dishonestly.
Bad news spread fast and they're spreading
Negative information travels quickly and they are propagating it too.
They're spreading like a chip pan fire
It's spreading uncontrollably like a kitchen fire.
We must confess, we ain't progressed
We need to admit that we haven't made any progress.
Since Elvis has left the building a mess
Things have been chaotic and disorganized since a prominent figure has departed.

And I say
It's all right

Lyrics:
Here comes the sun, doo-doo-doo-doo
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's alright
Little darlin', it's been a long, cold, lonely winter
Little darlin', it feels like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, doo-doo-doo-doo
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's alright
Little darlin', the smile's returning to their faces
Little darlin', it seems like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's alright
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Little darlin', I feel that ice is slowly melting
Little darlin', it seems like years since it's been clear
Here comes the sun, doo-doo-doo-doo
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's alright
Here comes the sun, doo-doo-doo-doo
Here comes the sun
It's alright
It's alright

All Ghost's covers are so insanely good! I really wish they'd do "don't fear the reaper" Tobias' voice would be perfect for that.

I second this emotion

Anthony Vincent from Ten Second Songs covered it in the Style of Ghost

I think covering BOC is a little on the nose for Ghost. Opus Eponymous was basically BOC meets Mercyful Fate, so always seemed like those 2 bands were off the list for potential covers haha.
