Him
Styles Harry Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The one who stays and the one who's leaving you
Hear me out, my apologies
'Cause I'm not here for sympathy
'Cause I don't wanna hear about him
How he is holding you better at night
And I don't wanna hear about himIn these songs you continue to write
I was with you when you wrote that line
It was me that you had on your mind
So I don't wanna hear about him
That nice dress in my wildest dreams
The lipstick stains you left still on my sheets
When I hear "amazing eyes"
It breaks my heart every time
'Cause I don't wanna hear about him
How he is holding you better at night
And I don't wanna hear about him
In these songs you continue to write
I was with you when you wrote that line
It was me that you had on your mind
So I don't wanna hear about him
Do you know what it's like
To fall in love from the outside?
And I don't know
But I've been trying for you, for me
Now I know what it's like
To fall in love from the outside
'Cause I don't wanna hear about him
I don't wanna hear about him
And these songs you continue to write
I was with you when you wrote that line
It was me that you had on your mind
I don't wanna hear about him
Is he holding you better at night?
Is it me running into your mind?
I still think about you all the time

The lyrics delve into the pain of hearing about the person who is now with their former lover. The singer expresses a strong desire not to hear about this other person who is now in their ex-partner's life, especially in the songs that continue to be written.

Ultimately, the song captures the complexity of emotions involved in witnessing a former partner move on to someone else.

1. An event or sequence of events of a specified kind or that has previously been referred to.
"the board admitted responsibility for the affair"

Taylor Swift - Wildest Dreams:
Say you'll remember me
Standing in a nice dress
Staring at the sunset, babe
Red lips and rosy cheeks
Say you'll see me again
Even if it's just in your wildest dreams
Harry Styles - Him:
That Nice Dress In My Wildest Dreams
The Lipstick Stains You Left Still On My Sheets
It seems that this line is in response to "Wildest Dreams", which means that the song was written after the release of "1989" at the very least. In addition, BBMAs Harry's reaction to seeing Taylor and Calvin on stage, and Taylor's mention of "dickhead guy" in "Question...?", it's basically sure that this "Him" is Calvin, and Harry has written a song about Calvin, haha.
@vojnici94
it sounds like this was recorded years ago. his voice sounds younger. amazing lyrics and instrumental.
@enzatamborra4921

@donnabentley9344

@karaElise330
I felt the opposite..he sounded older
@thekapiticoaster
It was either towards the end of 1D or at the beginning of his solo career, before HS1. So, yes, he was definitely younger!
@noakamer7139
I mean... The pain in his voice, I just cannot stop listening. He is so perfect.
And thank you so much!
