Walking in the Rain
Love's Journey: Walking, Wishing, and Embracing
Lyrics
I want him, and I need him,
Expresses a desire and necessity for someone.
And someday someway woo I'll meet him
Hopeful anticipation of meeting this person in the future.
He'll be kind of shy, and real good lookin' too
Expectation that this person will be somewhat reserved but attractive.
And I'll be certain he's my guy by the things he'll like to do
Belief that shared interests and actions will confirm compatibility.
Like walking in the rain (like walking in the rain)
Referencing a romantic activity as simple and pleasant as walking in the rain.
And wishing on the stars (and wishing on the stars) up above
Symbolic gesture of hoping and dreaming for something beyond reach.
And being so in love
Emphasizing the intense emotional state of being deeply in love.
When he's near me, I'll kiss him,
Expresses a longing to physically express affection through kissing.
And when he leaves me woo I'll miss him
Anticipating the pain of separation when this person is not around.
Though sometimes we'll fight, I won't really care
Acceptance of occasional disagreements without diminishing feelings.
And I'll know it's gonna be alright 'cause we've got so much we share
Confidence in the strength of the relationship due to shared experiences.
Like walking in the rain (like walking in the rain)
Reiteration of the romantic act of walking in the rain, emphasizing its significance.
And wishing on the stars (and wishing on the stars) up above
Continued hope and aspirations, represented by wishing upon stars.
And being so in love
Reaffirmation of the intense emotional connection of being in love.
(Johnny) no no he'll never do
Dismissing the suitability of individuals named Johnny and Bobby.
(Bobby) no it isn't him too
Rejecting Bobby as a potential partner as well.
They would never no they'd never never ever ever love
Asserting that those individuals would never understand or reciprocate this love.
Walking in the rain (like walking in the rain)
Repeated emphasis on the significance of walking in the rain as a romantic activity.
And wishing on the stars (and wishing on the stars) up above
Reiteration of the hope and longing associated with wishing upon stars.
And being so in love
Reaffirmation of the intense emotional state of being deeply in love.
Oh oh oh where can he be oh oh
Expressing a longing and search for this envisioned partner.
