Pearl Jam / Love Reign O'er Me
Letra >
Only love can make it rain
The way the beach is kissed by the sea
Only love can make it rain
Like the sweat of lovers
Laying in the fields
Love, reign o'er me
Love, reign on me, rain o'er me
Rain on me
Only love can bring the rain
That makes you yearn to the sky
Only love can bring the rain
That falls like tears from on high
Love, reign o'er me, rain on me
Love, reign o'er me, rain on me
Rain on me
On the dry and dusty road
The nights we spend apart alone
I need to get back home to cool cool rain
I can't sleep and I lay and I think
The night is hot and black as ink
Wooh God, I need a drink of cool cool rain
Love, reign o'er me
Reign o'er me, o'er me
Love, reign o'er me
Rain on me
Info de la cancion en la Wikipedia
"Love, Reign o'er Me" is the final song from The Who's second rock opera, Quadrophenia, and has been a concert staple for years.
The single release is shorter than the album track, missing the introductory rolling surf sound and the first piano intro, slightly different sequence of the lyrics and ends on string synthesizers with piano rather than the drum solo, guitar, gong and brass explosion as on the album.
The song concerns the main character, Jimmy, having a personal crisis and stealing a boat to go off to a small island.
As Pete Townshend described the song:
| “ |
[It] refers to Meher Baba's one time comment that rain was a blessing from God; that thunder was God's Voice. It's another plea to drown, only this time in the rain. Jimmy goes through a suicide crisis. He surrenders to the inevitable, and you know, you know, when it's over and he goes back to town he'll be going through the same shit, being in the same terrible family situation and so on, but he's moved up a level. He's weak still, but there's a strength in that weakness. He's in danger of maturing.[1]
