Rhythm
F.O.H. Lyrics

Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain
The sound of the raindrops falling has a rhythm that is symbolic of the sadness the singer feels

Telling me just what a fool I've been
The sound of the raindrops falling is symbolic of the singer's realization that he has been foolish for letting go of the girl he cares about

I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain
The singer wishes the rain would stop so he can cry by himself without the added symbol of the falling rain representing his tears

And let me be alone again
The singer wants to be left alone to deal with his heartbreak in private

The only girl I care about has gone away
The singer is heartbroken because the girl he cares about has left him

Looking for a brand new start
The girl is searching for a fresh beginning in her life, without the singer

But little does she know that when she left that day
The singer knows that the girl he cares about is unaware of the pain she has caused him by leaving

Along with her she took my heart
The singer feels like a piece of him was taken away when the girl he cares about left

Rain, please, tell me now, does that seem fair
The singer is questioning the fairness of the situation, wondering if it is right for someone to take someone else's heart with them when they leave

For her to steal my heart away when she don't care
The singer is hurt that the girl he cares about took his heart with her even though she doesn't seem to care about him

I can't love another when my heart's somewhere far away
The singer is unable to move on and fall in love with someone else while his heart is still with the girl who left him

But, rain, won't you tell her that I love her so
The singer is pleading with the falling rain to tell the girl he cares about that he still loves her deeply

Please, ask the sun to set her heart aglow
The singer is hoping that the sun will help spark the girl's feelings for him once again

Rain in her heart, and let the love we knew start to grow
The singer is hoping that the rain will bring love back into the girl's heart and they can start their relationship anew

Falling rain
The falling rain is a symbol of the singer's tears and heartache

Cry in vain
The singer realizes that his tears will not bring the girl back to him and he feels like he is crying for no reason

Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain
Once again, the singer is drawing attention to the sound of the falling rain and how it symbolizes his heartbreak

Falling rain

The sound of the falling rain is a musical representation of the singer's heartbreak
