Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Funny, but here's that rainy day
Here's that rainy day they told me about
And I laughed at the thought that it might turn out this way
Where is that worn out wish that I threw aside
After it brought my lover near
It's funny how love becomes a cold rainy day
Funny how love becomes a cold rainy day
Funny, that rainy day is here

Line by Line Meaning
Maybe I should have saved those left over dreams
Perhaps I should have held on to my dreams instead of letting them go
Funny, but here's that rainy day
It's ironic how the day that they warned me about has arrived
Here's that rainy day they told me about
The day that I was warned about has come to pass
And I laughed at the thought that it might turn out this way
I didn't take the warning seriously and thought things would turn out differently
Where is that worn out wish that I threw aside
I had a wish that I gave up on and now I wonder where it went
After it brought my lover near
That wish led me to find the love of my life
It's funny how love becomes a cold rainy day
Love can turn from warm and happy to cold and depressing
Funny, that rainy day is here
It's ironic how the day of sadness and depression has arrived
