Dance in the rain
Nicola Roberts Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sometimes life just makes it hard for me to breathe
'When the good turns into bad
And the happy into sad
When the weight of this big world
Is too much for this small girl
And I gotta find a way
So I left my hand I'm safe
Everything will be okay, babe'
Oooh the tears from your eyes dance the rain from the sky
Get yourself high
Ooooh the tears from your eyes dance the rain from the sky
Get yourself high
Sometimes life just makes it hard for me to breathe
Sometimes life just makes it hard for me to breathe
'When the good turns into bad
And the happy into sad
When the weight of this big world
Is too much for this small girl
And I gotta find a way
Just to make it through the day
So I left my hand I'm safe
Everything will be okay, babe'
Oooh the tears from your eyes dance the rain from the sky
Get yourself high
Ooooh the tears from your eyes dance the rain from the sky
Get yourself high
Get yourself so
Oooh the tears from your eyes dance the rain from the sky
Get yourself high
Ooooh the tears from your eyes dance the rain from the sky
Get yourself high
When the good turns into bad
And the happy into sad
When the weight of this big world
Is too much for this small girl
And I gotta find a way
"Just Dance in the Rain" is a single by Nicola Roberts addressing the subject of overcoming challenges and finding inner strength. The song acknowledges the struggles that people face in life and encourages listeners to find a way to push through and emerge stronger on the other side. The lyrics convey a message of empowerment while acknowledging the pain and difficulties that life can bring. The first two lines of the chorus are "Oooh the tears from your eyes dance the rain from the sky / Get yourself high." The metaphor of dancing in the rain symbolizes the idea of embracing one's emotions and finding catharsis in them.
The song has a mid-tempo pop sound that's bolstered by some tight production work, with the chorus particularly standing out for driving Nicola Roberts' poignant message home. The song has its roots in 1960s Motown, the rhythmic piano driving each chorus onwards like a mini-Motown orchestra. There are also touches of the Cocteau Twins and Kate Bush, with swooping synths and swathes of reverb building to a satisfying, arms-in-the-air climax. It has been praised for its catchy chorus and uplifting message, with many critics noting that it is a standout track on the album.
