Waiting for the Rain
Eternal Yearning: Jesse Clegg's 'Waiting for the Rain' Embraces Hope Amidst Endless Waiting
Lyrics
(Waiting)
Waiting (repeated theme of anticipation)
(Waiting)
-(Waiting)
-(Waiting)
-I can feel it
Expressing sensation or perception
Coming over me
Sensing something impending or approaching
You say there's no one else to blame
Denying responsibility by blaming others
And the last time
Referring to a previous instance, suggesting recurrence
Was only weeks ago
Recent past occurrence
With me and you always ends the same
Implying a repetitive and predictable outcome in relationships
Take it back to where we used to be
Desire to return to a previous state or relationship
Calling out your name
Seeking attention or connection
Calling out your name
Repetition for emphasis on seeking connection
Placed between the desert and the sea
Feeling stuck between opposing or contrasting situations
Every day's the same
Monotony or lack of change in daily life
Waiting for the rain
Anticipation for change or relief
Waiting for the rain
Reiteration of the anticipation for rain as a metaphor for change or resolution
Waiting for the rain
-What you said to me my darling, hold on
-I'm always waiting for the rain
-Waiting for the rain
-Waiting for the rain
-Waiting for the rain
-I believed you
Having trust or belief in someone in the past
All those years ago
Reference to a distant time period
You said that we were thick as thieves
Comparing a relationship to a close partnership
Do we hold up?
Considering whether to continue or end
Or take our final bow
Contemplating the end or closure of the relationship
I can't tell if you still believe
Uncertainty about the partner's belief or commitment
Let's take it back to where we used to be
Desire to return to a previous state or relationship
Calling out your name
Seeking attention or connection
Calling out your name
Repetition for emphasis on seeking connection
Placed between the desert and the sea
Feeling stuck between opposing or contrasting situations
Every day's the same
Monotony or lack of change in daily life
Waiting for the rain
Anticipation for change or relief
Waiting for the rain
Reiteration of the anticipation for rain as a metaphor for change or resolution
Waiting for the rain
-What you said to me my darling, hold on
-I'm always waiting for the rain
-Waiting for the rain
-Waiting for the rain
-Waiting for the rain
-And I'm open for something to change
Expressing willingness or readiness for change
Calling out your name
Seeking attention or connection
'Cause I wait for you
Expressing anticipation for someone
I wait for you
Reiteration of waiting for someone
To start again
Hoping for a fresh start or new beginning
Waiting for the rain
Reiteration of the anticipation for rain as a metaphor for change or resolution
Waiting for the rain
-What you said to me my darling, hold on
-I'm always waiting for the rain
-Waiting for the rain
-Waiting for the rain
-Waiting for the rain
-Let's take it back to where we used to be (Waiting for the rain)
Reiteration of wanting to return to a previous state or relationship
Waiting for the rain
Reiteration of the anticipation for rain as a metaphor for change or resolution
Waiting for the rain
-Placed between the desert and the sea (Waiting for the rain)
-Waiting for the rain
-Waiting for the rain
