Celebrate The Rain
Suburban Tribe Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
drifting in a desrt searching for the promised land
don't know where I am
vibrations in the stale air
creating a mirage looking with a blank stare
am I already there
She came on like a wild rain storm
all over me
she hit me with a sweet suprise
Celebrate the rain
the sweet summer rain
Celebrate the sweet summer rain
Compelling weird feeling
just like a strong urge tempting me to sin
I'm giving in
Bestial thirst and heat
curving my instincts, salty turns into sweet
It's all I need
Wet whispers
silent cries
she's a devil in disguise
Show me all the hidden delights
let me taste your sweet love
you sweet love
The lyrics of Suburban Tribe's song Celebrate The Rain evoke an intense sensory experience of being lost in a desert and then suddenly being hit by a rainstorm that brings relief and excitement. The opening lines paint a picture of a barren landscape in which the singer is searching for something elusive - the promised land. The use of sensory detail, such as the heatwaves, dry white sand, and vibrations, create a feeling of disorientation and desperation. However, the mood is transformed when the rain comes, and the singer is hit by a "sweet surprise" in the form of a woman who is likened to a "wild rainstorm". The theme of unexpected pleasure is repeated throughout the song, as the singer gives in to his "bestial thirst and heat" and is seduced by his lover's "hidden delights" and "sweet love".
One interpretation of the lyrics could be that they are exploring the theme of desire and the tension between the desire for something unattainable and the temptation to give in to immediate pleasure. The image of the desert as a metaphor for a lonely and barren existence could represent a life without passion or intimacy, while the rainstorm symbolizes the sudden arrival of desire and pleasure. The use of language that incorporates both sensual and animalistic imagery creates a sense of primal desire that is hard to resist.
Line by Line Meaning
Heatwaves and dry white sand
Roasting under the hot sun, amidst sand parched and dry
drifting in a desrt searching for the promised land
Moving through a barren wasteland with the hope of eventually finding a place of bounty
don't know where I am
Lost in the vast expanse of the desert, unsure of direction
vibrations in the stale air
Slight movements in the stagnant atmosphere, evoking unease
creating a mirage looking with a blank stare
A trick of the eye that deceives with a vacant mind, unable to differentiate reality from illusion
am I already there
Questioning whether the destination has already been reached, lost in a daze
She came on like a wild rain storm
She enters with an overwhelming force, like a sudden, unexpected deluge
all over me
Taking hold of every aspect, dominating and overpowering
from the clear blue sky
Without forewarning or expectation, like a change in the weather on a clear day
she hit me with a sweet suprise
Overwhelmed with pleasure, intoxicated by the surprise of a velvety touch
Celebrate the rain
Embrace the sudden and unexpected shower of pleasure
the sweet summer rain
The warm and heavy droplets that fall as if to enrich and rejuvenate everything they touch
Celebrate the sweet summer rain
Bask in the moment of unbridled sensation
Compelling weird feeling
An unexplainable force influencing actions, driving to yield
just like a strong urge tempting me to sin
A magnetic pull towards temptation, a forbidden fruit that begs to be tasted
I'm giving in
Succumbing to the allure of the unknown
Bestial thirst and heat
A primal and overwhelming desire, coursing with unbridled passion
curving my instincts, salty turns into sweet
Instincts guiding actions, making even the bitter sweet, as the moment takes hold
It's all I need
The pursuit of sensation, in the now, is everything
Wet whispers
The seductive murmurs offered in the heat of the moment, like the velvet caress of soft lips on the ear
silent cries
The soundless groans of ecstasy that escape between clenched teeth
she's a devil in disguise
Intoxicating, bewitching, and dangerous
Show me all the hidden delights
Reveling in every hidden detail of the moment, celebrating the unknown and forbidden
let me taste your sweet love
Let me indulge in the passion of this moment, drink deep of the sweetness of intimacy
