Standing In The Rain
Young John Paul Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And someday, some way, I'll need her
She'll be kind of shy
And real good lookin' too
I'll be certain she's my girl
By the things she'll like to do
Like walkin' in the rain
And wishin' on a star up above
When she's near me I'll kiss her
And when she leaves me, I'll miss her
Though sometimes we might fight
I won't really care
I know it's gonna be all right
'Cause we've got so much to share
Like walkin' in the rain
And wishin' on a star up above
And bein' so in love
No, no, she'll never do
No, it isn't her too
They would never
No, they'll never, never, ever love
Like walkin' in the rain
And wishin' on a star up above
And bein' so in love
Like walkin' in the rain
And wishin' on a star up above
And bein' so in love
Like walkin' in the rain
The lyrics to Young John Paul's "Standing in the Rain" speak to the singer's desire for a particular kind of relationship with a woman. He wants her and needs her, and though she may be shy and good-looking, he knows she's his girl by the things they both enjoy doing together, like walking in the rain and wishing on stars. He even suggests that they may fight at times, but it won't matter much because they have so much to share. The repetition of the lines about walking in the rain and wishing on stars emphasizes the idea that these small, romantic moments are what make the relationship special.
Overall, this song is a testament to the power of simple, shared experiences in making a relationship feel meaningful. The message is one of optimism and hope for a deep connection with someone special.

They use the same tune for Love is the air, the day that my heart caught fire, lost in your love. It’s terribly crazy.
