Never Stops Raining paints a vivid picture of post-breakup blues. Over a backdrop of steady Cuban rhythms and TIMØ’s smooth harmonies, the singer imagines an ex enjoying sunny skies and warm coffee while he is stuck under endless clouds. The rain is not just weather, it is a metaphor for the gloom that refuses to lift, no matter how many optimistic radio forecasts he hears. Each drop reminds him of promises broken and plans stolen by the “thief” called the present.
Trapped in the same room, he wonders: What if the rain never ends? If the sun never returns, will his heart simply freeze over? The song’s catchy melody contrasts with its heavy questions, creating an emotional tug-of-war that listeners instantly feel. It is a bittersweet anthem for anyone who has waited by the phone, hoping the storm in their chest will finally clear.
