Imagine sitting by the window while the rain drums a steady beat, blurring the world outside. That steady refrain—“А за окном дожди”—sets the mood for JONY’s wistful ballad about love, regret, and self-worth. The singer flips through memories like photographs: sharing cotton-candy sweetness, folding origami gifts, and singing love songs together. Yet behind the nostalgia looms his fear of hurting the one he loves, so he locks the door, watches the rain, and asks the aching question: “Do you really need these tears?”
The chorus becomes a gentle wake-up call. Over the patter of rain and the drip of tears, he pleads with his “kroshka” to see that she “deserves more in this world.” It is both a breakup and a blessing—a bittersweet promise that letting go can be an act of kindness. In short, the song paints a gray, rainy backdrop for a bright revelation: sometimes love means stepping back so both hearts can find clearer skies.
