When the Sun Comes Out
Embracing Sunshine: A Tale of Love's Resilience in Billy Eckstine's Melody
Lyrics
When the sun comes out
Anticipation of positive change and happiness when the sun appears.
And that rain stops beatin' on my windowpane
Hope for relief from a difficult situation symbolized by rain.
When the sun comes out
Reiteration of the longing for a brighter, happier future with the sun.
There'll be bluebirds 'round my door
Expectation of joy and positive experiences symbolized by bluebirds.
Singin' like they did before
Recollection of a past time when things were joyful and carefree.
That old storm broke out
Narration of a past storm, possibly representing a difficult period in life.
And my man walked off and left me in the rain
A personal relationship ended during a challenging time (the rain).
Though he's gone, I doubt
Expressing doubt about the permanence of the departure of a loved one.
If he'll stay away for good
Uncertainty about whether the person will return for good.
I'd stop living if he should
Signifying the emotional impact of the loved one's potential permanent absence.
Love is funny
Reflection on the unpredictable and complex nature of love.
It's not always peaches, cream and honey
Contrasting the idealized view of love with its real, challenging aspects.
Just when everything looked bright and sunny
Acknowledging that challenges can arise unexpectedly, disrupting happiness.
Suddenly the cyclone came
Metaphorically describing a sudden and impactful life upheaval (cyclone).
I'll never be the same
Expressing the profound and lasting effect of the mentioned upheaval.
Till that sun comes out
Repeating the desire for a positive change with the appearance of the sun.
And that rain stops beatin' on my windowpane
Reiterating the hope for relief from difficulties when the rain ceases.
If my heart holds out
Expressing a willingness to endure challenges as long as the heart remains steadfast.
Let it rain and let it pour
Indicating readiness to face and endure challenges symbolized by rain.
It may not be long before
Anticipating positive changes and opportunities in the near future.
There's a knockin' at my door
Expecting a positive event or a reunion, symbolized by a knock on the door.
Then you'll know the one I love walked in
Expressing the recognition of the loved one's return when the sun comes out.
When the sun comes out
Reiteration of the association of happiness and positive change with the sun.
