Lyrics
When I saw you standing in the rain
Observing someone in the rain, setting the scene for a romantic encounter.
I couldn't get much wetter
Expressing humor or irony, suggesting that being wet in the rain couldn't make the situation worse.
I was feeling no pain
Feeling good or intoxicated, possibly from the rain or another source.
I said Mr. Daniels can't you see
Addressing Mr. Daniels, possibly referring to Jack Daniels, a brand of whiskey. Seeking understanding or guidance.
You know you really got a hold on me
Acknowledging the influence or control someone has over the speaker.
I can't stay but I can't let go
Expressing conflicting emotions of wanting to leave but being unable to break free.
I'm telling you babe I'm a Hi 'N' Lo
Describing oneself as a mixture of highs and lows, suggesting emotional complexity.
I don't even know your name
Emphasizing the lack of knowledge about the person, underlining the mysterious nature of the relationship.
I don't even know your name
-Thinking back to the very first time
Reflecting on the initial meeting, a nostalgic reference to a past encounter.
Well you were there with me
Recalling a specific moment when the person was present.
And she looked oh so fine
Complimenting the person's appearance, describing them as attractive.
But then you played a dirty trick on me
Revealing a betrayal or deceit by the person, introducing a negative turn in the relationship.
Sure that's alright cos' next time it's gonna be twice as good as this
Optimism about future experiences, expecting them to be better despite the previous deception.
Then she gave me a kiss
Recalling a positive moment with a kiss from the person.
But that wouldn't do no thanks to you
Expressing dissatisfaction with the kiss due to the person's actions.
S, S, Prrriest......
A seemingly unrelated interjection, possibly a reference to something else.
Roll on time, just don't roll over me
Desiring to withstand the test of time without being defeated.
See, see I was too slick to trick the timeless parody
Boasting about being clever enough to avoid deception or manipulation.
Hey, uncle Jack have you heard the news I just put cleets on my blue suede shoes
Sharing personal news, possibly metaphorical, about putting "cleets" on shoes and embracing change.
It's a brand new game, I might change my name
Anticipating a new phase in life, possibly related to the changes mentioned earlier.
And no one's ever gonna be the same
Expecting significant transformation and uniqueness.
I don't even know your name
Repeating the theme of not knowing the person's name, reinforcing the mystery and anonymity.
I don't even know your name
-I don't even know your name
-Honey, I don't even know your name
-Yeah....Yeah....Yeah.....
A repeated exclamation, possibly expressing excitement or affirmation.
