Standing out the crossroad once again alot of things in love will growing
I know - you've got to listen to the phone

The lyrics to Gotthard's song Let It Rain appear to be about a couple who have gone through a lot of pain but are trying to salvage their love. The singer addresses Lady Jane, wondering if they will ever meet again. The song describes the pain the couple has caused each other but points out that it is not enough to make them wrong. The lyrics suggest that the love they share is strong enough to last forever, and the couple is standing at a crossroad again with a lot of things in love growing slowly in progress. The singer acknowledges that they have to listen to the phone to know what the right decision is.
The chorus repeats the phrase "Let it Rain" several times, suggesting that the couple needs to let go of their pain and allow the rain to wash it away. "Till the sun comes back again, the answer is your only friend." The sun represents happiness, and the only way to find it is to listen to the answer within oneself. The song acknowledges that the journey may not be easy and that it requires slow and steady steps. The singer believes that they can be together in a place they have never been before, suggesting that there is hope for a brighter future despite the pain they have experienced.

Who else is listening this master piece song in 2023😊
@Anna-ew8vv
When I was a baby, I always had a stomachache and cried a lot. So when I started crying, whether in the middle of the night or the day, my dad took me to the kitchen and started to dance with me until I fell asleep, always listening to that song. Whenever I hear this song, I do not know if I should cry or laugh. I only know if I ever feel bad or if I cry that he will dance with me in the kitchen until all my worries are gone. Always, 'till the end.
