Lyrics

Sunshine, blue sky, please go away
My girl has found another, and gone away
With her went my future, my life is filled with gloom
So day after day, I stay locked up in my room

I know to you it might sound strange
I wish it would rain (oh how I wish that it would rain)
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah

Cause so badly
I wanna go outside (such a lovely day)
Everyone knows that a man ain't supposed to cry
Listen, I got to cry, cuz crying, oooh
Eases the pain, oh yeah

People, this hurt I feel inside
Words, they, could never explain
I just wish it would rain (oh how I wish that it would rain)
Oh let it rain, rain, rain, rain (oh how I wish that it would rain)
Ooooooh baby

Let it rain (rain, rain)
Oh yeah, let it rain

Day in day out, my tear stained face
Pressed against my window pane
My eyes search the skies, desperately for rain
Cause rain drops will hide my teardrops and no one will ever know
That I'm crying (crying) crying (crying)
When I go outside

To the world outside my tears I refuse to explain
I wish it would rain (oh how I wish that it would rain)
Rain, rain, rain (oh how I wish that it would rain)
Ooooh baby

Let it rain
I need rain to disguise the tears in my eyes
Yeah, you know I'm a man, I got my pride
Til it rains, I'm gonna stay inside
Let it rain, let it rain
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah..
Oh how I wish that it would rain..
