Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
(Uh-huh, uh-huh) Good girl gone bad
(Uh-huh, uh-huh) Take three... action!
(Uh-huh, uh-huh) Woah!
You have my heart
And we'll never be worlds apart
May be in magazines
Baby, 'cause in the dark
You can't see shiny cars
And that's when you need me there
With you I'll always share
'Cause I
I'm singin' in the rain (We'll shine together)
Just singin' in the rain (We'll be forever)
What a glorious feeling (Be a friend)
And I'm happy again (Stick it out 'til the end)
I'm laughing at clouds (More than ever)
So dark, up above (We'll share each other)
I'm singin', singin' in the rain (Umbrella)
You can stand under my umbrella (Ella, ella, eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella (Ella, ella, eh eh eh eh eh eh)
These fancy things
Will never come in between
You're part of my entity
Here for infinity
When the world has took its part
When the world has dealt its cards
If the hand is hard
Together we'll mend your heart
'Cause I
I'm singin' in the rain (We'll shine together)
Just singin' in the rain (We'll be forever)
What a glorious feeling (Be a friend)
And I'm happy again (Stick it out 'til the end)
I'm laughing at clouds (More than ever)
So dark, up above (We'll share each other)
I'm singin', singin' in the rain (Umbrella)
You can stand under my umbrella (Umbrella)
Ella, ella, eh eh eh (Just singin' in the rain)
Under my umbrella (What a glorious feeling)
Ella, ella, eh eh eh (And I'm happy again)
Under my umbrella (I'm laughing at clouds)
Ella, ella, eh eh eh (So dark, up above)
Under my umbrella (I'm singin')
Ella, ella, eh eh eh eh eh eh (Singin' in the rain...)
It's rainin', rainin'
Ooh, baby it's rainin', rainin'
Baby, come here to me
Come here to me
It's rainin', rainin'
Ooh, baby it's rainin', rainin' (More than ever)
Baby, come here to me
Come here to me
It's rainin', rainin' (I'm singin' in the rain)
Ooh, baby it's rainin', rainin' (Just singin' in the rain)
Baby, come here to me (What a glorious feeling)
Come here to me (And I'm happy again)
It's rainin', rainin' (I'm laughing at cluods)
Ooh, baby it's rainin', rainin' (So dark, up above)
Baby, come here to me (The sun's in my heart)
And I'm ready for love
My umbrella, my umbrella
My umbrella, my umbrella
The song "Singing in the Rain/Umbrella" is a mashup of the classic song "Singing in the Rain" by Gene Kelly and "Umbrella" by Rihanna. The lyrics talk about standing by someone's side no matter what happens in life. The beginning of the song talks about how the person singing will always be there for their loved one, no matter how much money or fame they may attain. The chorus then talks about singing in the rain and enjoying life with your loved one by your side. It emphasizes that they will always be together and will weather any storm that comes their way. The repeated chorus, "You can stand under my umbrella," is a metaphor for taking shelter and finding solace with your loved one.
The verse that begins with "These fancy things will never come in between" is a reference to material possessions not being able to come between the love shared between two people. The line "When the world has taken its part, when the world has dealt its cards, if the hand is hard, together we'll mend your heart" shows how they will always be there for each other, no matter what life throws their way.
