B.J.THOMES Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And just like the guy whose feet
Are too big for his bed
Nothing seems to fit
Those raindrops
Are falling on my head
They keep falling.
Talking to the sun
And I said I didn't like the way
He got things done
Sleeping on the job
Those raindrops
Are falling on my head
They keep fallin'
But there's one thing I know
The blues they send to meet me
Won't defeat me, it won't be long
Till happiness
Steps up to greet me
Raindrops keep falling on my head
But that doesn't mean my eyes
Will soon be turning red
Crying's not for me 'cause,
I'm never gonna stop the rain
By complaining,
Because I'm free
Nothing's worrying me
It won't be long
Till happiness
Steps up to greet me
Raindrops keep falling on my head
But that doesn't mean my eyes
Will soon be turning red
Crying's not for me cause,
I'm never gonna stop the rain
By complaining,
Because I'm free, 'cause nothing's worrying me
The song "Raindrops Keep Fallin' on My Head" by B.J. Thomas is a reflection on the feeling of being overwhelmed by problems in life. The singer is experiencing a difficult time, as if nothing seems to be going their way. The raindrops falling on his head serves as a strong metaphor for the problems that keep piling on, making it impossible for him to find any comfort or peace. He tries to talk to the sun, as if pleading for the problems to be resolved, but the universe seems to be against him.
But despite being weighed down, the singer refuses to allow himself to succumb to sadness. He acknowledges that the problems and stress will continue to come his way, but he is confident that he won't allow it to get to him. He knows that happiness is just around the corner, waiting to greet him. By the end of the song, the singer is confident, singing that nothing will worry him and he is free.

Letra:
Gotas de lluvia caen en mi cabeza
Y como el chico cuyos pies son muy grandes
Para su cama
Nada parece adaptarse
A aquellas
Gotas de lluvia que caen en mi cabeza
Siguen cayendo
Así que le hable un poco al sol
Y le dije que no me gusta la manera
Que hizo las cosas
Se queda dormido en el trabajo
Aquellas
Gotas de lluvia que caen en mi cabeza
Siguen cayendo
Pero hay una cosa que sé
Las tristezas que envían para conocerme
No me venceran
No tarda mucho para que la felicidad
Se acerque a saludarme
Gotas de lluvia siguen cayendo en mi cabeza
Pero eso no significa que mis ojos
Pronto enrojeceran
Llorar no es para mí, por qué
Nunca detendré la lluvia quejándome
Ya que soy libre
Nada me preocupa
No tardará mucho para que la felicidad
Se acerque a saludarme
Gotas de lluvia que caen en mi cabeza
Pero eso no significa que mis ojos
Pronto enrojeceran
Llorar no es para mí, porque
Nunca detendré la lluvia quejándome
Ya que soy libre
Nada me preocupa...
A mí...

Raindrops keep fallin' on my head
And just like the guy whose feet are too big for his bed
Nothin' seems to fit
Those raindrops are fallin' on my head, they keep fallin'
So I just did me some talkin' to the sun
And I said I didn't like the way he got things done
Sleepin' on the job
Those raindrops are fallin' on my head, they keep fallin'
But there's one thing I know
The blues they send to meet me won't defeat me
It won't be long till happiness steps up to greet me
Raindrops keep fallin' on my head
But that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turnin' red
Cryin's not for me
'Cause I'm never gonna stop the rain by complainin'
Because I'm free
Nothin's worryin' me
It won't be long till happiness steps up to greet me
Raindrops keep fallin' on my head
But that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turnin' red
Cryin's not for me
'Cause I'm never gonna stop the rain by complainin'
Because I'm free
Nothin's worryin' me
