She
Dr. Dre Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She's my kind of rain
Like love in a drunken sky
She's confetti falling down all night
She sits quietly there
Black water in a jar
Says, "baby, why you trembling like you are?"

So I wait
And I try
I confess like a child

She's my kind of rain
Like love from a drunken sky
Confetti fallin' down all night
She's my kind of rain

She's the sunset's shadows
She's like Rembrandt's light
She's the history that's made at night
She's my lost companion
She's my dreamin' tree
Together in this brief eternity

Summer days
Winter snow
She's all things to behold

She's my kind of rain
Like love from a drunken sky
Confetti fallin' down all night
She's my kind of rain

So I wait
And I try
I confess all my crimes

She's my kind of rain
Like love from a drunken sky
Confetti fallin' down all night
She's my kind of rain

She's my kind of rain
Like love from a drunken sky
Confetti fallin' down all night
She's my kind of rain

She's my kind of rain
Oh, rain on me (she's my kind of rain)




She's my kind of rain (rain, ooh)
She's my kind of rain
