When It Rains Lyrics
Maybe I'm changing
Maybe I'm so impatient
Maybe I just don't care, about what you think
'Cause I can never please her
no matter how hard I try
You know sometimes I just wanna throw up my hands and say,
"ok fine"
But life's too short she said
If it works, then it works, let it go
And I'm sorry I ever got you started
When it rains, it pours and it shows
I was blessed with a birth and a death
and a gift or a curse, somewhere in between
'Cause your only as loud as the noises you make
and as big as the things that you dream
Still I can never please him
no matter how hard I try
and maybe you should have made up your mind
before I changed mine
But life's too short she said,
If it works then it works, let it go
and I'm sorry I ever got you started
when it rains it pours and it shows
Still life's too short she said
If it works, then it works, just let it go, let it go
Well I'm sorry I ever got you started
When it rains it pours and it shows
Maybe I'm so impatient
Maybe I just don't care, about what you think
no matter how hard I try
You know sometimes I just wanna throw up my hands and say,
"ok fine"
If it works, then it works, let it go
And I'm sorry I ever got you started
When it rains, it pours and it shows
and a gift or a curse, somewhere in between
'Cause your only as loud as the noises you make
and as big as the things that you dream
no matter how hard I try
and maybe you should have made up your mind
before I changed mine
If it works then it works, let it go
and I'm sorry I ever got you started
when it rains it pours and it shows
If it works, then it works, just let it go, let it go
Well I'm sorry I ever got you started
When it rains it pours and it shows

One of my favorite songs by her...
and maybe you should have made up your mind before I changed mine
i love this song. It reflects what i feel about this girl right now... "and i could never please her. no matter how hard i try..." I'll just have to go along with everything.
hmmmm im thinking
'Cause I can never please her no matter how hard I try You know sometimes I just wanna throw up my hands and say, "ok fine"
refers to maybe her mum?? ie fights between mother & daughter
and that
Still I can never please him no matter how hard I try and maybe you should have made up your mind before I changed mine
refers to a relationship with a guy
haha yeah :) not many people have commented on tristan's songs. maybe just not many know about her cause i think she's fantastic -- her songs are summery and breezy and so easy to listen to -- whats not to like :)
i dont think anyone will really know what she's singing about but that's what makes her songs so awesome! i hear she's real popular in Tokyo...odd huh
to me this song is about sort of thinking you should just give up on someone u love becuase u try so hard to please them but they dotn notice or whatever but lifes to short.......and the person that u love doesnt realise that they care for u until u have given up on them
Anyone else catch the Ani Difranco refrerances?
YES! Thank you, I'm glad I'm not the only one! I thought so as soon as I read "I was blessed with a birth and a death." I adore both of them.
to me she is singing tow sides of a relationship.. the guy feels like he can never please her so he pulls away.. but hs should let go b-c life is too short
the second verse is her trying to please him after he has pulled away, and realizing its all in vain.. giving up, then him coming back..but its too late b-c she has changed her mind already
isn't that the way it always is?
