I remember how I used to lie in bed
And listen to the water fall down and fade away
Wishing I had hid the day away somewhere
So I could find it; now that it's clear I need the grey
Let it rain, let it rain
Let it rain, let it rain
Oh, back home I walked the rainy streets one night
The gutters flowing, full of street lights, and where they laid
I saw water rolling down like many times before
It never stops, it never ignores why it was made
Let it rain, let it rain
Let it rain, let it rain
Oh, to hear the water, clean on blessed fall
And everybody missing it all, heaven's rain
Turning face and heart towards the sky, and then
Remembering where water begins to make its way
Let it rain, let it rain
