Rainy Days and Mondays
Roger Williams His Piano And Orchestra Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Maybe I should have saved those left over dreams
Funny, but here's that rainy day
Here's that rainy day they told me about
And I laughed at the thought that it might turn out this way

Where is that worn out wish that I threw aside
After it brought my lover near
It's funny how love becomes a cold rainy day
Funny, that rainy day is here





Funny how love becomes a cold rainy day
Funny, that rainy day is here

Maybe I should have saved those left over dreams
Perhaps I should have held onto those unfulfilled aspirations


Funny, but here's that rainy day
It's ironic that the day I feared has come


Here's that rainy day they told me about
This is the day that people warned me of


And I laughed at the thought that it might turn out this way
I underestimated the possibility of this unfortunate outcome


Where is that worn out wish that I threw aside
What happened to that desire that I gave up on?


After it brought my lover near
Because it led me to the person I love


It's funny how love becomes a cold rainy day
It's strange how something beautiful can turn painful


Funny, that rainy day is here
Ironically, this painful day has arrived
