The song was originally written by Burt Bacharach and Hal David for the soundtrack of the film "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid," where it was performed by B.J. Thomas and won an Academy Award for Best Original Song. The lyrics depict a person who is facing various difficulties in life, symbolized by the raindrops falling on their head. Despite the challenges, the protagonist remains optimistic and refuses to let these obstacles bring them down. The repeated line "But that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turnin' red" suggests that they won't let the troubles make them cry or feel defeated. In an attempt to find solace, the protagonist has a conversation with the sun, expressing their dissatisfaction with how things are going and how the rain keeps falling. However, they also recognize that complaining won't change anything. Instead, they choose to focus on their freedom and not let anything worry them. The song's central theme is resilience and the strength to face adversity with a positive attitude. It conveys the message that even when faced with challenges, it's important to stay hopeful and believe that happiness will eventually come. Despite the rain continuing to fall, the protagonist remains free from worry, indicating their determination to keep moving forward without letting anything dampen their spirit.
