Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Thought I'd moved on and you brought me right back
To the night you took my kiss away from me
I took yours too, then I lost you
Bring me back to holding hands in the rain
I swear I'd ease your pain
Lift you up so you could finally see
The love you are to me
I've had time and I've had change
I've been broken but still I can't explain
Our July in the rain
The lyrics to He Is We's song "Our July In The Rain" speak to the singer's feelings of regret and longing for a lost love. The opening lines express remorse for hurting someone: "Why'd I have to go and do you like that? / Thought I'd moved on and you brought me right back." Despite having moved on, the singer is reminded of the night when they lost their first kiss with this person: "To the night you took my kiss away from me / I took yours too, then I lost you." This suggests that perhaps the relationship ended because of miscommunication or a mistake they both made.
The chorus of the song is a lament for what was lost: "Bring me back to holding hands in the rain / I swear I'd ease your pain / Lift you up so you could finally see / The love you are to me." The imagery of holding hands in the rain is romantic and suggests intimacy and vulnerability. The singer wants to make things right and ease their past partner's pain. The line "lift you up so you could finally see / the love you are to me" suggests that the partner may have doubted the singer's love for them before, and now the singer wants to set things right.
Overall, "Our July in the Rain" is a heartfelt plea for forgiveness and reconciliation. The singer's regret and longing are palpable in the lyrics, and the use of rain as a motif throughout the song adds to the melancholy feeling of lost love.
