Lyrics

When I want rain, I get sunny weather,

Expressing a desire for rain but getting sunny weather, metaphorically reflecting a mismatch between expectations and reality.

I'm just as blue as the sky;

Feeling melancholy, symbolized by the color blue, comparable to the vastness of the sky.

Since love is gone, can't pull myself together,

Struggling to cope with the absence of love, finding it difficult to emotionally recover.

Guess I'll hang my tears out to dry.

Deciding to outwardly display the emotional pain by metaphorically hanging tears out to dry, suggesting a public airing of one's sorrow.


Friends ask me out, I tell them I'm busy,

Declining social invitations, creating excuses, and maintaining a private space due to emotional distress.

Must get a new alibi!

Creating a new false narrative or excuse for avoiding social engagements.

I stay at home and ask myself, "Where is he?",

Staying at home and reflecting on the absence of a loved one, questioning their whereabouts.

Guess I'll hang my tears out to dry.

Reiterating the decision to openly express and deal with the emotional pain.


Dry little teardrops,

Highlighting the nature of tears as symbolic little droplets.

My little teardrops,

Repeating the emphasis on small tears, underscoring the emotional weight.

Hangin' on a string of dreams.

Describing tears as hanging on a string of dreams, suggesting a connection between emotions and aspirations.

Fly little memories,

Referring to memories as flying away, perhaps indicating a sense of loss or detachment.

My little memories,

Emphasizing the smallness of memories but acknowledging their role in recalling shared dreams and experiences.

Remind him of our crazy schemes.

Noting that memories remind the person of past joint endeavors or plans.


Somebody said, "Just forget about him!",

Receiving advice to forget about the person causing emotional pain.

I gave that treatment a try.

Trying the suggested advice but discovering unexpected strength in being without the person.

Strangely enough, I got along without him,

Reflecting on the paradox of getting along without the person but still experiencing emotional pain.

Then one day he passed me right by;

Encountering the person unexpectedly, leading to a realization that the emotional struggle continues.

Oh, well, I guess I'll hang my tears out to dry.

Accepting the ongoing emotional pain and deciding to continue expressing it.

Little teardrops,

Repeating the imagery of small teardrops, filled with dreams, emphasizing the enduring emotional impact.

Little teardrops, filled with dreams.

Underlining the emotional weight of tears as vessels carrying unfulfilled dreams.
