Crying in the Rain
Peter & Gordon Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The way my broken heart is hurting me
I've got my pride and I know how to hide
All the sorrow and pain
I'll do my crying in the rain
If I wait for cloudy skies
You won't know the rain from the tears in my eyes
So though the heartaches remain
I'll do my crying in the rain
Raindrops falling from heaven
Will never wash away my misery
But since we're not together
I'll wait for stormy weather
To hide these tears I hope you'll never see
Someday when my crying's done
I'm gonna wear a smile and walk in the sun
I may be a fool
But till then, darling, you'll never see me complain
I'll do my crying in the rain
I'll do my crying in the rain
I'll do my crying in the rain
I'll do my crying in the rain
The lyrics to Peter & Gordon's song "Crying in the Rain" describe the pain and heartache of a breakup. The singer is determined to hide their emotions and not let their ex-lover see how hurt they are. They mention their pride as motivation for this decision. They will wait for rain, which will mask their tears, and express their sadness in private. The chorus repeats the image of tears being shed in the rain. The second verse acknowledges that even rain cannot wash away the singer's misery, but it's the only way to keep their feelings hidden. They vow to keep their pain to themselves until they can heal and move on, promising to one day wear a smile and walk in the sun. Despite the hurt, the singer claims they will not complain, and will continue to cry in private.
The use of rain as a metaphor for tears and sadness is a common literary device in music and poetry. The lyrics of "Crying in the Rain" follow this tradition, creating a dreamy, melancholic atmosphere. The idea of keeping one's emotions private is also a touchstone of many breakup songs, as expressing too much vulnerability can be seen as a sign of weakness. In this song, the singer's determination to hide their pain creates a sense of stoicism and quiet strength.
Overall, "Crying in the Rain" is a poignant and emotional song that explores the complexities of dealing with heartbreak. The combination of melancholic lyrics and a lovely melody make it a timeless classic.

I'll never let you see
I will keep my brokenness hidden from you
The way my broken heart is hurting me
I am in immense pain from heartbreak
I've got my pride and I know how to hide
I will hide my emotions because I am too proud to show them
All the sorrow and pain
I am experiencing immense sorrow and pain
I'll do my crying in the rain
I will cry alone where no one can see me
If I wait for cloudy skies
If I wait for a gloomy day
You won't know the rain from the tears in my eyes
You will not be able to distinguish between tears and raindrops in my eyes
You'll never know that I still love you
You will be unaware of the love I still have for you
So though the heartaches remain
Despite the heartache that persists
I'll do my crying in the rain
I will cry in solitude
Raindrops falling from heaven
Rain is falling from the sky
Will never wash away my misery

But since we're not together
As we are not together anymore
I'll wait for stormy weather
I will wait for a storm to hide my tears
To hide these tears I hope you'll never see
To conceal my tears from you
Someday when my crying's done
One day, when I am done crying
I'm gonna wear a smile and walk in the sun
I will smile and enjoy life again
I may be a fool
I might be foolish for still loving you
But till then, darling, you'll never see me complain
However, I will not complain about my situation in front of you
I'll do my crying in the rain
I will cry alone where no one can see me
I'll do my crying in the rain
I will cry alone where no one can see me
I'll do my crying in the rain
I will cry alone where no one can see me
