November rain
Guns N´ Roses Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
We've been through this such a long long time
Just tryin' to kill the pain, ooh yeah
Love is always comin', love is always goin'
No one's really sure who's lettin' go today
Walkin' 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
The lyrics to Guns N’ Roses’ “November Rain” are a powerful depiction of love, heartbreak, and the inevitability of change. The singer begins by recognizing the love that they share with their partner, but acknowledges that it is a love restrained, perhaps due to underlying issues or complications. Despite this, when they hold their partner, they feel the same love and longing.
The singer goes on to recognize the fleeting nature of emotions, and how hearts can change at any moment. It’s hard to hold onto true love in the midst of confusing and tumultuous emotions, which is mirrored in the metaphor of holding a candle in the cold November rain.
The chorus echoes the singer’s desire for clarity and honesty in love. They’ve been “tryin’ to kill the pain,” but ultimately, it’s time to lay it on the line and express their love wholeheartedly. The bridge adds another layer to the theme of needing time alone to heal and grow, but ultimately finding a way to love in spite of past hurt or darkness. The repetition of “Don't ya think that you need somebody? Don't ya think that you need someone?” underscores the importance of connection and companionship, even as the singer acknowledges the value of taking time to oneself.
Overall, the lyrics to “November Rain” encapsulate a complex mix of emotions about love and the need for human connection, tempered by the recognition that change is inevitable and sometimes difficult to endure.

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
