Lyrics

Listening to the falling rain

Reflecting on the sound of rain falling

Always seems to bring her back again

The rain triggers memories of someone special

I can remember like it was yesterday

Recalling a past moment vividly

Sound of her voice, her look upon her face

Remembering the sound and look of her

Like children playing children's games

Comparing their relationship to innocent children's games

We joked and laughed at every passing day

Reminiscing about joyful times together

I'm so much older, things have changed

Noting the passage of time and personal changes

I've realized that now it's just too late

Realizing it's too late to change things


I hear the laughter echoin' through my brain

Hearing the laughter as a persistent memory

I hear the laughter then I'm alone again

Feeling alone after the laughter fades

I tried to forget her heaven knows

Attempting to forget the person

Seems there's no direction left to go

Feeling lost with no clear path forward

I can remember like it was yesterday

Repeating the vivid recollection of a moment

I hear the laughter then I'm alone again

Loneliness returns with the echoes of laughter


I'm alone again, alone again

Emphasizing the solitude

I wish that I could hold you now

Expressing a desire to hold the person again

I wish that I could turn this all around

Wishing for a reversal of the current situation

It's just my foolish fantasy

Acknowledging a fanciful but unrealistic hope

But that won't bring your sweet love back to me

Understanding that fantasies won't bring back love


I hear the laughter, somebody called my name

Hearing laughter, possibly from memories or surroundings

I hear the laughter and I can feel the pain

Experiencing pain along with the laughter

I hear the laughter echoing through my brain

The persistent sound of laughter in the mind

I hear the laughter then I'm alone again

Returning to loneliness after the laughter fades

I hear the laughter, I hear the laughter

Repeating the theme of hearing laughter
