Rainy Days and Mondays
Navigating Stormy Emotions: Rainy Days and Mondays by Olivia Newton-John
Lyrics
Talking to myself and feeling old
Talking to oneself, feeling aged and perhaps weary.
Sometimes I'd like to quit, nothing ever seems to fit
Desire to give up as nothing seems to fall into place.
Hanging around nothing to do but frown
Loitering aimlessly, experiencing sadness.
Rainy days and mondays always get me down
Feeling low specifically on rainy days and Mondays.
What I've got they used to call the blues
Experiencing emotions akin to the blues.
Nothing is really wrong, feeling like I don't belong
No apparent major issue, yet a sense of not fitting in.
Walking around some kind of lonely clown
Roaming while feeling like a sad, solitary figure.
Rainy days and mondays always get me down
Low spirits on rainy days and Mondays.
Funny but it seems I always wind up here with you
Consistently ending up in a particular situation.
It's nice to know somebody loves me
Comfort in knowing someone cares.
Funny but it seems it's the only thing to do
Seeming like the only recourse available.
To run and find the one who loves me
Seeking the one who loves to find solace.
What I feel has come and gone before
Emotions have been experienced previously.
No need to talk it out, we know what it's all about
No necessity to discuss, the situation is understood.
Hanging around nothing to do but frown
Again, feeling desolate without any particular purpose.
Rainy days and mondays always get me down
Specifically affected by rainy days and Mondays.
Oh funny but it seems I always wind up here with you
A pattern of consistently ending up in a situation with someone.
It's nice to know somebody loves me
Reassurance in being cared for.
Funny but it seems that it's the only thing to do
Seeming like the sole option available.
To run and find the one who loves me
Searching for solace in the one who loves.
Ahhh yeah, what I feel has come and gone before
Emotions experienced previously once again.
No need to talk it out, we know what it's all about
No need to articulate, the situation is familiar.
Hanging around nothing to do but frown
Continuing to feel desolate without any specific activity.
Rainy days and mondays always get me down
Affected by rainy days and Mondays consistently.
Hanging around nothing to do but frown
Loitering aimlessly, experiencing sadness.
Rainy days and mondays always get me down
Specifically feeling low on rainy days and Mondays.
Always
Reiterating the consistent impact of certain days.
Get me down
Expressing the feelings of being down.
Down.
Reinforcing the sentiment of feeling low or down.
