November rain
Guns n' Roses(枪炮玫瑰) 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

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Guns N' Roses' "November Rain" are a beautiful and melancholic portrayal of love and its many challenges. The song explores both the joy and fragility that come with falling in love, highlighting the complexity of human emotions and relationships. The opening lines of the song, "When I look into your eyes, I can see a love restrained", allude to the singer's understanding that their partner may be hesitant to fully express their love. Despite this, the singer confesses that when they hold their partner, they feel the weight of the same love and the same understanding that comes with it.


The chorus of the song speaks to the reality that things don't last forever, and that "hearts can change". The metaphor of holding a candle in the cold November rain represents the difficulty of sustaining something pure and beautiful in harsh circumstances. The second verse has the singer acknowledging that they have had to endure pain in love and that lovers tend to come and go. The bridge encourages understanding and communication, as the singer sings: "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". The repetition of "all alone" in the third verse drives home the point that everyone needs time to themselves, but also the universal human need for connection and support. The final verse gives hope that even when things feel hopeless and dark, love can still prevail.
