Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To answer the question I know you been wonderin'
Playin' cool, I, cool, how could it all be true
These things, who's that and what's it to you
He is the mind objector, the heart protector
The soul defender of anything I fear
The baby conceiver, the make me believer
[Chorus]
He is the dough increaser, the pleasure releaser
The hard knocks knower without the scars to show ya
The night school teacher, the good life preacher
The caretaker, the kiss craver
He is
All these words are only frostin' on my cake
Feelings explain, don't do justice to how I feel
So alive, so in love for the first time
No way can I hide who am I
He is the mind objector, the heart protector
The soul defender of anything I fear
The baby conceiver, the make me believer
The joy bringer, the love giver
[Chorus]
{He is} So {He is}, so {He is}
Everything, everything I want and I want it
{He is} So {He is}, so {He is}
And so much more than I thought it could be
{So right} So right {So right} girls, I
I gotta be the same for him {I gotta be the same for him}
For my baby
Oh...oh...yes, he is, oh, oh
I know exactly what he is
{He is, he is, he is}
My joy bringer
{He is, he is, he is}
He is the soul injector, the heart protector
The soul defender of anything I fear
The baby conceiver, the make me believer
The joy bringer, the love giver
[Chorus]
He is make it alright to get you through the night
The soul defender of anything I fear
The pain remover, bad times undoer
The joy bringer, the love giver
He is
He is
The song He Is by Heather Headley is a beautiful ode to her lover. The song is about the countless ways in which her lover completes her and makes her feel loved. The lyrics convey how much she is in awe of her lover and how much he means to her. The song starts with Heather wondering where to begin, as she knows her lover has been wondering about certain things, and she wants to answer all his queries. She admits that she has been playing cool, and her lover is an all-encompassing figure in her life. She describes him as the mind objector, the heart protector, and the soul defender of everything she fears. He is the one who brings joy and love into her life, and the one who makes her believe.
The chorus of the song talks about how her lover is the dough increaser, the pleasure releaser, the hard knocks knower, the night school teacher, the good life preacher, the caretaker, and the kiss craver. These are all the qualities that Heather appreciates in him and make her feel complete. She emphasizes that these words are only the frosting on her cake, and her feelings for him cannot be justified in words. She feels alive and in love for the first time and cannot hide who she is.
In the next verse, Heather again emphasizes that he is the soul injector, the pain remover, and the bad times undoer. He makes her feel secure and loved in his company. She admits that he is everything she wants and so much more than she thought it could be. The song then ends with her admitting that she knows exactly what he is, her joy bringer, and her soul defender.
