When It Rains It Pours
Twiddle Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You wake to greet the brand new day
Wake up, realize you're late
Rush out to make your plane
Can't find your keys again

The rent's been due for weeks
You need this gig to eat
Your car starts to leak
The engine's really weak

It won't start up in time
Try to find a ride
The bills weren't paid on time
Your cell phone's lost the line

Your problems won't go away
They keep piling on your plate
You just want to escape

You need to reawake, now
Listen to the words
I'm saying in this line, and
That your life will be just fine, and
Your troubles do not stay
They get replaced with good times
Now you've got a great life
Smile as you walk by
Thinkin' 'bout the day

It's late, your legs won't rest today
Your body seems to ache
Your mind will win the race
Burnin' by your sleep again

The light blooms from the sun
The long dark night undone
Another day of fun
Waiting for some luck to come

You keep hoping for a day
When things will go your way
When all decisions have been made
And karma's finally found its way

The drinks, they pass the time
They help me to unwind
The guilt is killing me
Inside your eyes

They need to reawake, now
Listen to the words
I'm saying in this line, and
That your life will be just fine, and
Your troubles do not stay
They get replaced with good times
Now you've a great life
Smile as you walk by
Thinkin' 'bout the day

It's gray, the rain pours down my face
The tears become erased
A cleansing of my face
Splashing down into my grin

My eyes become alive
A feeling left behind
A hidden world untied
Creating all you see today

The clouds, they went away
Forever, did I wait
And karma finally found my plate
And now I'm smiling by the sun

We'll meet again someday
We'll smile and then I'll say:
"When it rains, it pours all day
Until love can find its way"

Now, listen to the words I'm saying
In this line that your life will be just fine,
And troubles, they do not stay,
They get replaced with good times
Now you've got a great life,
Smile as you walk by
Need to reawake now
LIsten to these words that
I'm saying in this line
And your life will be just fine
Troubles, they do not stay
They get replaced with good times




Now you've got a great life
Smilin' 'bout the day...
