Guitarist Leo Leoni about "Smiling In The Pouring Rain": "The idea was to give the song a positive vibe. Even if sometimes life could be sad, or sometimes even sadder. What you always have to keep in mind is that something good is always going to come sooner or later. So you have to keep believing in what you do, and especially in yourself. We're trying to give a little bit of hope. That's the idea behind this song."

"This song is basically about life and the unexpected great things that can come out of bad times. Life can feel like a never-ending roller coaster, and this track is kind of our take on 'Singing in the Rain,'" adds vocalist Nic Maeder.

Lyrics:
Here we go again my friend
Afraid that I'm a mess again
Smiling in the pouring rain
Smiling in the pouring rain

Here we go again my friend
Afraid I fell in love again
Running in the pouring rain
Cause I don't wanna miss the train

Some roads lead to Paris
Some roads lead to Rome
Some roads take you nowhere
Some roads take you home

Some lead you to heaven
Some lead you to hell
Some lead you to fall down
But in love with you I fell

And that's the story
And that's the way it goes
Yeah that's my story
A book that I can't close

Here we go again my friend
Afraid that I'm a mess again
Smiling in the pouring rain
Smiling in the pouring rain

Here we go again my friend
Afraid I fell in love again
Running in the pouring rain
Running in the pouring rain

Some roads lead to mountains
Some will lead to seas
Some roads take you nowhere
Some may lead to peace

Some lead you to heaven
Some lead you to hell
Some lead you to fall down
But in love with you I fell
