Rain
E-Type Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You and I we can never be
All the things that we wanted to
So I set you free
Here we are, point of no return
Never thought it would crash and burn
Started out with the best of intentions
What is it that I never find
I just want a little piece of mind
Am I back on the endless road to nowhere
Why is it that I never find
All the things that I left behind
Am I back on the endless road to nowhere
Why did you leave me standing there
in the rain
You said we would last forever
Was everything I said to you all in vain?
I just tried to make you see
Why did you leave me standing there
in the rain
We were meant to be forever
Was everything I said to you all in vain
When did we become just me
So let's drink to the life ahead
Standing tall just like you said
Only this time it's someone else
That is in my bed
When you left I had much to say
But today time has come to pay
And i know how hard it is just
To fly away
What is it that I never find
I just want a little piece of mind
Am I back on the endless road to nowhere
Why is it that I never find
All the things that I left behind
Am I back on the endless road to nowhere
Why did you leave me standing there
in the rain
You said we would last forever
Was everything I said to you all in vain?
I just tried to make you see
Why did you leave me standing there
in the rain
We were meant to be forever
Was everything I said to you all in vain
When did we become just me
Why did you leave me standing
Why did you leave me standing
I'm standing tall just like you said
I was trying to see the life ahead
Why did you leave me standing there
in the rain
You said we would last forever
Was everything I said to you all in vain?
I just tried to make you see
Why did you leave me standing there
in the rain
We were meant to be forever
Was everything I said to you all in vain
When did we become just me
The lyrics of E-type's song "Rain" are about a relationship that didn't work out. The singer wakes up to the fact that him and his partner can never be together in the way they wanted. The chorus repeats the question of why they couldn't make things work and why they're back on the "endless road to nowhere." The singer feels hurt and betrayed that his partner left him standing in the rain, especially after they promised to last forever. He questions if everything he said was in vain and wonders when they became just him.
The verse, "Here we are, point of no return, Never thought it would crash and burn, Started out with the best of intentions, I never learn," highlights the idea that they tried but ultimately things fell apart. The line "Only this time it's someone else, That is in my bed" suggests that the singer has moved on but is still reflecting on the past relationship.
Overall, the lyrics are about the pain of a failed relationship and the confusion that comes with it. The singer is left wondering what went wrong and why they couldn't make things work.

Am I back on the endless road to nowhere
Am I stuck in a meaningless life with no purpose or direction?

When you left I had much to say
When you abandoned me, I had so much I wanted to tell you
But today time has come to pay
But today, I must face the consequences of your leaving me
And i know how hard it is just to fly away
I understand how difficult it is to leave someone you love and move on with your life
Why did you leave me standing
Why did you just walk away and abandon me?
I'm standing tall just like you said
Despite the pain, I'm staying strong and determined
I was trying to see the life ahead
I'm looking towards the future and focusing on the good things to come
