Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Here comes the sun
Here comes the sun
And I say it's alright

Little darling
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 alright

Little darling
The smile's returning to the faces
Little darling
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 darling
I feel that ice is slowly melting
Little darling
It seems like years since it's been clear

Here comes the sun
Here comes the sun
And I say it's alright





Here comes the sun
Here comes the sun

Overall Meaning

"Here Comes the Sun" is a feel-good song by the Beatles that is all about the arrival of good times after a long dry spell. The song starts off by announcing the arrival of the sun, with the repetition of the title and a declaration that everything is okay now that it is here. The first verse addresses the fact that winter has been long and difficult to endure, with the little darling (presumably a loved one) feeling the effects of being cut off from natural light and warmth for so long. The second verse is an extension of the first, with a closer look at how the return of the sun is affecting people's moods. The chorus is repeated between verses and after the second verse, maintaining the theme of relief and hopefulness.


In the third verse, the sun is personified, as though it is an individual entity responsible for bringing back the light and warmth of happier days. It's praised for its ability to melt away the ice, a metaphor for the difficulties and challenges that have been faced during the cold months. The song ends with a repetition of the chorus, teasing the listener with the prospect of a brighter tomorrow.


"Here Comes the Sun" was written by George Harrison as a personal response to the stress and drama surrounding the Beatles at the time. Harrison had been going through a difficult period in his life, with constant friction between band members and conflicts with his legal representatives. The song was initially recorded during the Abbey Road sessions in 1969, with Harrison on lead vocals and acoustic guitar. The recording features Paul McCartney on bass and Ringo Starr on drums, while the iconic guitar riffs were overdubbed later in the production process.
