Hold Me There
The Rockateers Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sometimes, the weather thinks to turn
and dark comes the sky
try to find the shelter
to keep ourselves dry
some... times

All I, ever really wanted
was to share my

rainy days to someone
on the inside
some... times

When you hold me there
the sinners and the saints collide
and I'm aware
I'm inside greiving out
and nothing can compare
when you hold... me there
hold... me there

This life, the path we choose to travel
often some strive
and standing on the crossroad
I hope I choose right
some... times

When you hold me there
the sinners and the saints collide
and I'm aware
I'm inside greiving out
and nothing can compare
when you hold... me there
hold... me there

When you hold me there
the sinners and the saints collide
and I'm aware
I'm inside greiving out
and nothing can compare
when you hold... me there
hold... me there

When you hold me there
the sinners and the saints collide
and I'm aware
I'm inside greiving out
and nothing can compare
when you hold... me there
hold... me there

Sometimes, the weather thinks to turn
and dark comes the sky
try to find the shelter

to keep ourselves dry
some... times

The Rockateers' song "Hold Me There" is a beautiful, haunting tune that explores the human experience of needing comfort and support during difficult times. The opening lines set the mood for the song, describing how sometimes, the weather can turn and darken the sky, leaving us to seek shelter from the storm. The lyrics then move on to talk about the singer's desire for someone to share his rainy days with, someone who can hold him close during tough times.

The chorus of the song is the most powerful part, with the repetition of the line "When you hold me there" punctuating the emotional intensity of the lyrics. The sinners and the saints collide, highlighting the duality of human nature and how we can sometimes feel torn between our better and worse selves. But when the singer is held close by someone they love, the rest of the world fades away and all that matters is the comfort and security they feel in that moment.

Overall, "Hold Me There" is a testament to the power of love and the strength we can draw from those closest to us. Even when the weather turns and the skies darken, we can find solace in the arms of those who love us.
