"Just Like Rain" is a heartfelt ballad by Glenn Medeiros. The song tells the story of a person who sees their former lover with someone else and realizes the depth of their feelings for them. The rainy night setting sets a melancholic tone, mirroring the protagonist's emotions. The lyrics describe the painful moment of seeing the person they love laughing and being close to someone new. It cuts through their heart, as they quietly observe and pretend not to notice. However, it becomes clear to them that they can no longer hold onto this person. The chorus compares the protagonist's feelings to rain. They fall for this person just as rain falls from the sky. The tears they cry are symbolic of their unrequited love. The line "The sky is crying too" suggests that even nature sympathizes with their pain. The second verse highlights the past promises of eternal love made by the protagonist's former lover. Regret fills their heart as they realize it is now too late to express their true feelings. They should have professed their love when it mattered the most, but now the person they once loved is with someone else. The bridge section poses a desperate question to the person they love. If they were to admit that they cannot bear the pain of living without them, would it make them stop the rain? It reflects the longing and hope that maybe their love can be rekindled. The song's poignant ending reinforces the hold the person has on the protagonist. Hearing their name is enough to evoke a cascade of emotions, just like tears streaming down their face. The lyrics and melody beautifully illustrate the heartache and longing associated with unrequited love.
