She's my kind of rain
Like love in a drunken sky
She's confetti falling down all night
She sits quietly there
Black water in a jar
Says, "baby, why you trembling like you are?"

So I wait
And I try
I confess like a child

She's my kind of rain
Like love from a drunken sky
Confetti fallin' down all night
She's my kind of rain

She's the sunset's shadows
She's like Rembrandt's light
She's the history that's made at night
She's my lost companion
She's my dreamin' tree
Together in this brief eternity

Summer days
Winter snow
She's all things to behold

She's my kind of rain
Like love from a drunken sky
Confetti fallin' down all night
She's my kind of rain

So I wait
And I try
I confess all my crimes

She's my kind of rain
Like love from a drunken sky
Confetti fallin' down all night
She's my kind of rain

She's my kind of rain
Like love from a drunken sky
Confetti fallin' down all night
She's my kind of rain

She's my kind of rain
Oh, rain on me (she's my kind of rain)
She's my kind of rain (rain, ooh)
She's my kind of rain

    I think its very romantic, one of my faves in fact... rain is a symbol of purification and a new beginning, and so maybe she's this guy's new reason and he's straightening himself out ("I confess all my crimes")... but she's not all over him to get him to change; "she sits quietly there like water in a jar" to me is saying that she's changing him in a quiet, non-pushy way just by being there... and also water in a jar is the only way you can gather rain into something solid or that you can hold. This song isn't about flattering the woman, it's about acknowledging all that she's done for him and everything she means to him.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
