Stormy Weather
Eternal Rain: Jeff Lynne's Melancholic Tale of Love's Departure
Lyrics
Don't know why There's no sun up in the sky
Feeling uncertain about the absence of sunlight and a sense of gloom.
Stormy weather since my girl and I ended it together
Experiencing stormy emotional conditions since the end of a relationship.
Keeps raining all the time
Continuous emotional turmoil represented by ongoing rainfall.
Life is bad gloomy misery everywhere
Describing life as challenging and filled with misery.
Stormy weather just can't seem to get my self together
Struggling to find emotional stability in the midst of stormy circumstances.
I'll be here all the time
Expressing a commitment to endure the difficult times.
Oh yeah, since she went away the blues walked in and met me
Reflecting on the impact of a loved one's departure, leading to sadness.
If she stays away a rocking chair will get me
Fearing the emotional toll and loneliness if the loved one remains absent.
All I do is pray the lord will let me walk in the sun once more
Yearning for the chance to experience happiness and sunlight again.
Oh yeah, since she went away the blues walked in and met me
Reiterating the emotional impact of the loved one's departure.
If she stays away a rocking chair will get me
Expressing the fear of loneliness and a desire for the loved one's return.
All I do is pray the lord will let me walk in the sun once more
Continuing to hope for a brighter and happier future.
Can't go on everything I had is gone
Feeling unable to continue in the absence of everything once held dear.
Stormy weather, since my gal and I ended it together
Connecting the emotional storm with the end of the relationship.
Keeps raining all the time, keeps raining all the time
Emphasizing the persistence of emotional turmoil through ongoing rainfall.
Stormy weather, stormy weather, stormy weather
Repeating the theme of stormy weather and perpetual rain.
Keeps raining all the time
Reiterating the continuous nature of emotional difficulties represented by persistent rain.
