Waiting For The Rain
Embracing Hope: Yearning for Rain
Lyrics
There's a light on, down the road
Reference to a distant light down the road.
But the times gone half past four
Noting that the time is past 4:30.
You smoke a cigarette on your doorstep
Describing someone smoking a cigarette on their doorstep.
Once again
Repetition of the act of waiting.
And the clouds turn a different shade
Observing a change in the color of clouds.
As the sky fades
As the sky darkens or changes.
And I'm waiting for the rain
Expressing anticipation for rain.
I'm waiting for the rain
Reiterating the expectation for rain.
But It didn't come again
Noting disappointment as the rain didn't come.
Still I'm waiting for the rain
Continuing to wait for the anticipated rain.
Im waiting for the rain
Repetition of the waiting sentiment.
Again
Reaffirmation of waiting.
And I don't even know which way to go
Feeling lost or uncertain about the direction to take.
That's why I'm waiting for the rain
Explaining the reason for waiting is uncertainty.
So come and take it, I ain't complaining
Willingness to endure the situation without complaining.
I just need to see the rain
Expressing the need to witness the rain.
Once again I catch your eye
Noticing someone's smile while making eye contact.
Walking past I see your smile
Describing a positive interaction with someone.
And I'm wondering why your here
Questioning the presence of the person.
So I ask you why
Seeking an explanation for the person's presence.
Cause the clouds turned a different shade
Linking the changing clouds to the waiting situation.
So I'll sit here and wait
Deciding to wait for the rain due to the changed atmosphere.
I'm waiting for the rain
Reiteration of the waiting sentiment.
I'm waiting for the rain
Expressing the persistent anticipation of rain.
But It didn't come again
Expressing disappointment as the rain didn't come again.
Still I'm waiting for the rain
Continuing to wait despite previous disappointment.
Im waiting for the rain
Repetition of the waiting sentiment.
Again
Reaffirmation of waiting.
And I don't even know which way to go
Feeling lost or uncertain about the direction to take.
That's why I'm waiting for the rain
Explaining the reason for waiting is uncertainty.
So come and take it, I ain't complaining
Willingness to endure the situation without complaining.
I just need to see the rain
Expressing the need to witness the rain.
But It didn't come again
Expressing disappointment as the rain didn't come again.
Still I'm waiting for the rain
Continuing to wait despite previous disappointment.
Im waiting for the rain
Repetition of the waiting sentiment.
Again
Reaffirmation of waiting.
But It didn't come again
Expressing disappointment as the rain didn't come again.
Still I'm waiting for the rain
Continuing to wait despite previous disappointment.
Im waiting for the rain
Repetition of the waiting sentiment.
Again
Reaffirmation of waiting.
