Fresh Rain
Sophie Moleta Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But not well enough but not enough
Cause I find that I'm wanting
A little more of you're stuff
And I felt it before dear
And that's why I came
And I'm feeling some reason
To clean up my act
This reason
There is a lot of other factors
That have something to do
And until I am ready
I'll keep it
Until it is ready keep it
Keep it
Fresh rain dancing yeh X8
I'm a little scared
Of the force dear
The white light
The white noise
I'm a little scared of what could happen dear
If we decide
I'll conceal myself
Well dear just well enough
Until I find that you're wanting
Fresh rain dancing yeh X6
You conceal yourself well dear
But not well enough
The song Fresh Rain by Sophie Moleta is a reflective piece that centers around the idea of hiding and revealing oneself. The first verse contains a message of wanting to know someone better -- to uncover hidden aspects of their personality. The song's narrator mentions that she "felt it before dear," a reference to having these same feelings in the past. However, there's a sense of hesitation in moving forward with this desire, a feeling that is emphasized by the line "I'm not about to transfer this reason." It's unclear what exactly the reason refers to, but it's something that's being built up and kept secret.
Moving into the chorus, the lyrics repeat "Fresh rain dancing" eight times. This imagery could be interpreted in a few different ways, but it seems to match the song's overall mood of fresh starts and renewal. Rain often symbolizes cleansing and washing away negativity, and dancing suggests a happy, carefree attitude. Bringing those two ideas together creates a sense of joyful liberation.
The second verse expands on the idea of hiding oneself. The lyrics say that the singer is "a little scared of the force dear," which could mean a few different things. It could be a reference to the potential for powerful emotions, or perhaps a fear of losing oneself in a relationship. Regardless, there is still the desire to have someone truly see and understand you. The song ends with a repetition of the chorus, emphasizing the hope and newfound energy that comes with the fresh rain.
