This is not a young man's song. Rather it is one for a wise one, of a man who has learned to let go and accept the imperfections of his life and of life in general. While it can easily be a song of sacrifice or martyrdom, anyone who has truly seen chapters of life go by knows those regrets are better lived honestly than lied spitefully.

The rain came down The rain came down The rain came down on me The wind blew strong The summer song Fades to memory I knew you when I loved you then The summer's young and helpless You laid me bare You marked me there The promises we made I used to think As birds take wing They sing through life so why can't we? You cling to this You claim the best If this is what you're offering I'll take the rain I'll take the rain The nighttime creases Summer schemes And stretches out to stay The sun shines down You came around You love easy days But now the sun The winter's come I wanted just to say That if I hold I'd hope you'd fold Open up inside, inside of me I used to think As birds take wing They sing through life so why can't we? You cling to this You claim the best If this is what you're offering I'll take the rain I'll take the rain This winter song I'll sing along I've searched its still refrain I'll walk alone I've given this, take wing Celebrate the rain I used to think As birds take wing They sing through life so why can't we? You cling to this You claim the best If this is what you're offering I'll take the rain I'll take the rain

As with all of R.E.M.'s songs, there is the lyrical depth and emotional scope to arrive at several different interpretations. My personal interpretation would be that this song is an acceptance that some are lucky enough to live easy lives whilst others must struggle daily. The speaker is accepting that he's been dealt a bad hand but is resolving to make the most of his life. However it's interpreted, it remains an extremely emotional and first rate song, one of my favourites... Vive R.E.M.!

Yes I really am old....) and this was/is my favourite song from the album. R.E.M were back to their best with this one. Pure poetry.

Nós nos apegamos a isso e reivindicamos o melhor Se isso é o que você está oferecendo Eu vou pegar a chuva, eu vou pegar a chuva O tempo da noite vinca Esquemas de verão E estica pra trazer Os raios de Sol abaixo Você apareceu Seu amor nos dias fáceis Mas agora o Sol, O inverno chegou Eu quero só falar Que se eu segurar Eu esperaria que você cedesse E entrasse, dentro de mim Eu costumava pensar, como os pássaros voam, Eles cantam pela vida, então por que não podemos? Nós nos apegamos a isso e reivindicamos o melhor Se isso é o que você está oferecendo Eu vou pegar a chuva, eu vou pegar a chuva A música do inverno Eu vou cantarolar Eu procurei seu refrão parado Eu vou andar sozinho Dado isto, Voar e celebrar a chuva Eu costumava pensar, como os pássaros voam, Eles cantam pela vida, então por que não podemos? Nós nos apegamos a isso e reivindicamos o melhor Se isso é o que você está oferecendo

Michael Stipe é um cantor que trabalha para expressar os sentimentos em cada canção, algo muito raro. Não apenas recita os versos com os interpreta. Quando se escuta essa canção, você percebe que ele está sofrendo, está contando uma história triste. Não é necessário saber a Língua Inglesa para se deduzir isso. Um grande cantor e grandes músicos, esse é o REM.
