Through the rain 為Mariah Carey(瑪麗亞凱莉)為父母的情感經(jīng)歷所創(chuàng)作，是一首勵志歌曲。
瑪麗亞凱莉的母親為白人貴族，父親為黑人。在當時的社會背景下，他們這段浪漫的婚姻是不被允許的，所以在結婚前，瑪麗亞凱莉的家族長輩一直反對，最后在一次激烈的爭吵中，瑪麗亞凱莉的母親被迫離開家門。雖說后來也有回去，但婚后的生活，因為沒有來自家庭的支柱，她的丈夫又比較貧窮，所以可以說并不富裕。瑪麗亞凱莉就是在這樣的情況下，一步步成長為世界天后的。所以寫下這首歌曲，一是對父母婚姻的支持，二是為了鼓勵后人向她的父母一樣敢于戀愛，三是作為一首勵志歌曲，也有著鼓勵他人戰(zhàn)勝困難的作用。
歌詞：
When you get caught in the rain with no where to run
當你被困于風雨中 無處可逃
When you're distraught and in pain without anyone
當你心煩意亂 卻無人相伴
When you keep crying out to be saved
當你一直在哭泣并等待救贖的時候
But nobody comes
卻無人伸出援手
And you feel so far away
你感覺自己是那么的迷茫無助
That you just can't find your way home
以至于你無法找到回家的路
You can get there alone
你能夠獨自到達彼岸，
It's okay, what you say is
對于自己所說的話，你要相信自己能行
I can make it through the rain
我可以戰(zhàn)勝這場風雨
I can stand up once again on my own
我能夠靠自己再次站起
And I know that I'm strong enough to mend
而且我相信我足夠強大去修復它
And every time I feel afraid I hold tighter to my faith
每當我感到恐懼 都會緊緊握住我(心中)的信念
And I live one more day and I make it through the rain
只要我多存活一天 我就要戰(zhàn)勝這風雨
And if you keeps falling down don't you dare give in
當你處于低潮的時候，請不要輕易言棄
You will arrive safe and sound, so keep pressing on steadfastly
你將會安然無恙 所以請持之以恒
And you'll find what you need to prevail

There's nothing you can't face
沒有什么是你不能面對的
And should they tell you you'll never pull through
