Tears in the Rain Lyrics

This song is incredibly beautiful and painful - much like the majority of his music. I interpret this song being about true love that he once had, and lost. He took her for granted, and everyone since then, has not compared.

"When it's said and done I already felt love And I let it end up End up dying by itself And when it's said and done You were better off You deserve real love And I deserve to be by myself"

I also feel as though as he is singing to himself a bit - almost like the analytical side of him is looking at the person who acted foolishly.

"They all feel the same (ooh ooh ooh) Adjust to the fame (adjusted to the fame) 'Cause no one will love you like her It's pointless (no one's gonna love me) like tears in the rain"
