Rock

Fool in the rainled zeppelinjimmy page / robert plant / john paul jonesoh baby.
Well there's a light in your eye that keeps shinin', like a star that can't wait for night.
I hate to think i been blinded baby.
Why can't i see you tonight?
An' the warmth of your smile starts a burnin'an' the thrill of your touch give me frightand i'm shakin' so much, really yearnin'.
Why don't you show up and make it alrig__ht-yeah?
It's alright-right.
And if you promised you'd love so completelyan' you said you would always be true, you swore that you never would leave me baby, whatever happened to you?
An' you thought it was only in moviesas you wish all your dreams would come true, hey.
It ain't the first time believe me baby, i'm standin' here feelin' blu__e, blu__e-hah!.
Yes i'm blue.
Oh babe.
Now i will stand in the rain on the corner, i watch the people go shufflin' downtown.
A-nother ten minutes no longeran' then i'm turnin' around 'round.
An' the clock on the wall's movin' slower, oh my heart it sinks to the groundan' the storm that i thought would blow overclouds the light of the love that i fou__nd, fou__nd.
Light of the love that i found.
Light of the love that i found.
Oh that i found.
Hey babe.
Oooh__ hand that ticks on the clockjust don't seem to stopwhen i'm thinking it over.
Oooh__ tired of the light, i just don't seem to find.
Have you wait, yeah played.
Whoah oooh__ i see it in my dreamsbut i just don't seem to be with you, youi gotta get it all, gotta get it all, gotta get it all, i've got to get a__ll.
Ooh now my body is starting to quiveran' the palms of my hands gettin' wet oh.
I got no reason to doubt you baby, it's all a terrible mess.
An' i'll run in the rain 'til i'm breathless, when i'm breathless i'll run 'til i drop, hey!
An' the thoughts of a fool's gotta count, i'm just a fool waitin' on the wrong blo__ck ohh-yeah.
Hey now.
Ohhh__-hoh hohh.
Light of the love that i found.
Light of the love that i found.
Light of the love that i ...
Light of the love that i found.
Light of the hey now.
Light of the hey now.
Light of the love that i found.
Light of the love that i found.

About This Song

"Fool In The Rain" is a poignant ballad about romantic longing and the anxiety of waiting for someone who may never show up, capturing the vulnerability of unrequited love through the metaphor of standing alone in the rain. The song explores themes of devotion, disappointment, and the self-doubt that comes with loving someone who seems distant or unavailable, as the narrator questions whether he's been "blinded" by his feelings. Musically, it showcases Led Zeppelin's softer side with John Paul Jones' delicate keyboard work and a Latin-influenced rhythm that builds to an emotional crescendo, demonstrating the band's versatility beyond their heavy rock reputation. The track stands out on their final studio album as a mature reflection on love's complexities, featuring some of Robert Plant's most tender and introspective vocals. Its blend of melancholy and hope, combined with the band's sophisticated musical arrangement, makes it a compelling exploration of romantic yearning that resonates with anyone who has waited for love that feels just out of reach.
