Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But too much is falling in mine
Into each heart some tears must fall
But some day the sun will shine
Some folks can lose the blues in their hearts
But when I think of you another shower starts
Into each life some rain must fallBut too much is falling in mine
Into each life some rain must fall
But too much, too much is fallin' in mine
Into each heart some tears must fall
But some day the sun will shine
Some folks can lose the blues in their heart
But when I think of you another shower starts
Into each life some rain must fall
But too much is fallin' in mine
Into each and every life some rain has got to fall
But too much of that stuff is fallin' into mine
And into each heart some tears got to fall
And I know that someday that sun is bound to shine
Some folks can lose the blues in their heart
But when I think of you another shower starts
Into each life some rain must fall
But too much is fallin' in mine
The lyrics of "Into Each Life Some Rain Must Fall" by Ella Fitzgerald & The Ink Spots is a poignant tale of a person who is experiencing a considerable amount of pain and sorrow in their life.

The title of the song alone speaks volumes about the message that it is trying to convey. Rain is often used as a metaphor for difficult times in life, and the song acknowledges that everyone will experience hardship at some point, but too much of it can be overwhelming.

Into each and every life some rain has got to fall
We all experience troubles in life
But too much of that stuff is fallin' into mine
I am experiencing an excessive amount of problems
And into each heart some tears gotta fall

And I know that someday that sun is bound to shine
One day, things will get better for me

+Daniel P I honestly can not see what people like about this Kind of music. It's so slow and boring !
@midgetman75
+alex joe It grows on you.
@Sanityangel_
+alex joe it's soul music , soothing tone of genre. it fits with the times of that era , Jazz, Blues, Soul, Smooth Rock, and Poetry it the calling of those times , if we where born in that era we think it's the greatest music in the world, and we be jam in to it, also just depends on what we are expose to and how our experience in life is that we reflect on the type of music that is given, now a days we have tons of genres and sub genres to choose from. of you don't like it , it's for obvious reasons, not because it's slow and boring, that's just what you believe to think it's more than that it's because you can't relate , reflect , and connect with it, and because of reasons you only you know. it don't make you any less or more of a person.
I like this type of music almost anything from 1940s to now. music is such an amazing craft and history of its era, for example comparing hip hop in the 80s and Now. pretty much completely different because of the priority of the artist, the company and the fans.
