Very odd the lack of comments for such a great songwriter and lyricist.
This song is about a break-up. The woman left and he is wondering why. He's dwelling on it and cannot get over it, even though he is trying so hard to. Even though he knew she would leave, it doesn't make anything easier. His head understands and tells him to get over it, but his heart just won't give up.
What a great metaphor with the rain and the blue umbrella, it describes the situation so well, while also expressing the mood. The visual just adds to the understanding.
