    I've always liked this band I'm a 64 year old man. I just get tired when I hear people my age saying there's no good music out there and I keep telling them there is if you look for it. You're so much of it out there music is good you're never too old to love good music. And I just like to style the song it's really laid-back.

    my daughter is going to sing this solo at her 8th grade chorus concert. She overcame bullying and self-harm during middle school. I'm so proud of her, and this song to me is her letting go of that period of her life as she leaves middle school into high school. I can't wait to watch her sing live to all her peers.

    Did you stand there all alone?
    Oh, I cannot explain what's goin' down
    I can see you standin' next to me
    In and out somewhere else right now
    You sigh, look away
    I can see it clear as day
    Close your eyes, so afraid
    Hide behind that baby face
    Do-do-do
    Do-do-do
    You can drive all night
    Lookin' for the answers in the pourin' rain
    You wanna find peace of mind
    Lookin' for the answer
    Funny how it seems like yesterday
    As I recall, you were lookin' out of place
    Gathered up your things and slipped away
    No time at all, I followed you into the hall
    Cigarette daydream
    You were only seventeen
    Soft speak with a mean streak
    Nearly brought me to my knees
    Do-do-do
    Do-do-do
    You can drive all night
    Lookin' for the answers in the pourin' rain
    You wanna find peace of mind
    Lookin' for the answer
    If we can find a reason, a reason to change
    Lookin' for the answers
    If you can find a reason, a reason to stay
    Standin' in the pourin' rain
    Do-do, do, do, do
    Do-do, do, do-do, do-do
    Do-do, do, do, do
    Do-do, do, do-do, do-do
    You can drive all night
    Lookin' for the answers in the pourin' rain
    You wanna find peace of mind
    Lookin' for the answer
    If we can find a reason, a reason to change
    Lookin' for the answer
    If you can find a reason, a reason to stay
    Standin' in the pourin' rain

    I met my fiancé when I was 17 and I was beyond depressed looking for a way out, tried to committed suicide at 17, then I met him. This year we celebrated our 6th year anniversary and we always play this song on our anniversary date. It’s been our song, since I was 17. I can’t wait to play this at our wedding next year, it’s like the lyrics perfectly describe us, how I feel about him and how he feels about me.

      Basically my version was I went into it with every intention of pulling it off but then a million to one chance of something happening would happen every time after the second or third try failed and I woke up lying on the floor with the cord still wrapped around my neck the next day my friends whom I had forgotten about and I hadn't seen in years found me I was in a rush trying to clean everything up when they got through the front door and still had the noose on good thing to cause this year my wife that I had tried killing myself over losing ended up dying of cancer and I had to take over for her so she could finally rest. I told her what happened years later and she said it happened cause you're works not done yet you can't leave until it's finished that's the only words that carry me through alot of days now I went from being a mechanic to a welder to a stay at home dad of four 3 of which have autism so things pan out in ways you could never imagine I can't knock suicide cause I know what it means to be in such misery and constant pain that you can only sit and fantasize about which way would be the most effective way but you never have any way of telling what's around that next bend

    i started listening to this song when i was 16. ive always been told i’ve been mature for my age growing up, due to a lot of abuse i endured. the year i was 16 was one of the worst years of my life. i talked my father out of committing su!c!de, twice, which was incredibly traumatizing for me at the time. i struggled heavily with depression, to the point where i contemplated my own life at one point. i spent hours staring out my bedroom window when it rained, and have a vivid memory of just standing in the rain crying for something to pull me out of my pain. i fell behind in school after being an honours student, and missed close to over 100 days of school. this song truly did save me. i happened to be playing my spotify on a random shuffle which is what led to me finding this song. i think this song had such an emotional toll on me because the lyrics resonated with me so well. here i am, now 17, coming back to this song as my dad is in the hospital, nearing his death bed. i feel this song will stick with me for the rest of my life. thank you cte ❤

This song and the rain is just making me feel like he's with me. Such an amazing song. We ended off on such bad terms. There are just so many things I wish I could've said and done differently but now it's too late.

    I can see you standing next to me
    In and out somewhere else right now
    You sigh, look away
    I can see it clear as day
    Close your eyes, so afraid
    Hide behind that baby face
    Do do do do do do
    You can drive all night
    Looking for the answers in the pouring rain
    You wanna find peace of mind
    Looking for the answer
    Funny how it seems like yesterday
    As I recall you were looking out of place
    Gathered up your things and slipped away
    No time at all I followed you into the hall
    Cigarette daydream
    You were only seventeen
    So sweet with a mean streak
    Nearly brought me to my knees
    Do do do do do do
    You can drive all night
    Looking for the answers in the pouring rain
    You wanna find peace of mind
    Looking for the answer
    If we can find a reason, a reason to change
    Looking for the answer
    If you can find a reason, a reason to stay
    Standing in the pouring rain
    Do do do do do
    Do do do do do
    Do do do do do
    Do do do do do
    You can drive all night
    Looking for the answers in the pouring rain
    You wanna find peace of mind
    Looking for the answer
    If we can find a reason, a reason to change

    This song describes and gives the feeling of being 17 so accurately. Something about being 17 is so scary to me. You have only one year left of being a “child” yet you still have so much to learn. Soon you will be graduating high school and will never be a little kid again. Your life flashes before your eyes and the sudden rush of anxiety and despair you feel once you hit this age is unexplainably heartbreaking. You can’t go back to your childhood and do things differently after clearly seeing what you should’ve done differently. You don’t even know how to be an adult or what you are going to be doing with your life.. will you stay in this mess for the rest of your life.. or if not.. will you will even be able to make a name for yourself and be able to be looked upon by society as something valuable just because of your job title and your salary? You think, did I do enough? Did I waste all of my time fixating on things that doesn’t matter? Will I ever make it out of this rut that I’m in? It’s sad that we all have to think this way in this messed up world that we live in. I’ve never felt so understood by a song. This song hurts.. especially when your 17 and looking for the answers.

    I'll dedicate this song to a girl who I was friends with. A girl who I loved at the time, but never really became anything other than friends. A friend who gave me my first kiss and who I fell in love a little more. To this day I still don't know why she did what she did, to her it might've been something that can easily be brushed off. But to me, it's still a moment that I still remember clear as day. We were seniors in highschool, I followed you into the hall and, unlike this song says, you brought me to my knees. Sometimes I wish I never met you, but then again, time goes forward and not the other way around. So if you're reading this, just know that I'll never forget you. Time has healed the wounds, that left you left on me. The "will she" "won't she" wounds. I just can't help myself but get reminded of you everytime this song comes up. Just wishing you the best, and wishing you don't let what happened to me to the next person you meet.

    I fell in love with a girl and seeing her slowly fall out of love is the most painful feeling in the world.
    Edit: she fell out of love with me and refuses to talk me and now my life feels void less I have lost the love of my life and best friend in one.
    Edit:This might be the lamest thing I have ever said I can’t believe I felt this way at some point

    Lyrics
    Did you stand there all alone?
    Oh I cannot explain what's going down
    I can see you standing next to me
    In and out somewhere else right now
    You sigh, look away
    I can see it clear as day
    Close your eyes, so afraid
    Hide behind that baby face
    Do do do do do do
    You can drive all night
    Looking for answers in the pouring rain
    You wanna find peace of mind
    Looking for the answer
    Funny how it seems like yesterday
    As I recall you were looking out of place
    Gathered up your things and slipped away
    No time at all I followed you into the hall
    Cigarette daydream
    You were only seventeen
    Soft speak with a mean streak
    Nearly brought me to my knees
    Do do do do do do
    You can drive all night
    Looking for the answers in the pouring rain
    You wanna find peace of mind
    Looking for the answer
    If we could find a reason, a reason to change
    Looking for the answer
    If you could find a reason, a reason to stay
    Standing in the pouring rain
    Do do do do do do
    You can drive all night
    Looking for answers in the pouring rain
    You wanna find peace of mind
    Looking for the answer
    If we could find a reason, a reason to change
    Looking for the answer
    If you could find a reason, a reason to stay
    Standing in the pouring rain

    I fell in love with a girl and when we first ever talked, I had just found this song earlier that day. I used it as a conversation starter and she loved it and it became our song. Whenever i felt sad or scared we wouldnt last I'd lay outside in my yard and look at the stars while listening to this. I never had the courage to tell her how I really felt and we always were just friends. I regret not telling her so much and miss the times we had. No matter how hard I try I cant get over us...

    I remember sitting on a bench in my quiet town, cold beginnings of winter hitting me- I never liked the cold- and the clock hit 12:00AM..I cried for the first time in a long time, in the turn to my 18th birthday. This song blared in coincidence in my friend's car as she pulled up to the brick walk way where I sat. I'll never forget that moment. It started sleet-raining and she took me on a drive to cheer me up. As this song went on I sang it loud and proud like the fun idiot I could still be back then, and my friend who was easily annoyed by 'radio music' jammed and sang along with me in time for the @3:00 mark... I bought my "first" pack of cigs-- and the clerk didn't even card me, just that one time, of course. We both knew I was about to be left out in the cold from friends and family alike, I'd probably become homeless in due time thanks to my failing health, and life would only get more difficult from there. True nihilists at heart. One day we both lit cigarettes and just sat in silence, overlooking our usual spot over at the river dam. Eventually she left, too. This song always gives me bittersweet feelings. I never got to feel like a kid, be a kid, have a 'normal childhood'; but, even now I do miss those days for what they were.

    I recently said to someone that people made it through the 90's because of heartfelt songs like this (referring to a lot of 90's alternative) that hit everyone and because it was on the radio you knew it. That we all might feel this way sometimes when coming of age and feeling incredibly overwhelmed and there's a small tad bit of solace when you can smile and listen to a song like this.To just feel the wind, get off your damn phone, smile at someone and know that we all fight a hard battle.

      I feel like this song is about depression and contemplating your life over a cigarette and I for one have taken smoke breaks in the rain. When you see someone smoking a cigarette their not focused on getting nicotine they are trying to relax and catch a break so they can think. Cigarettes are not the answer that's why I like the theme of searching for it. Reminiscing back to simple highschool and or college times when we thought we had it all figured out because we truly lived for the present and not the future now in the real world we have to live in the present worrying about the future while looking back at our past like we were two people holding hands and just let go.
