Sunshine, blue skies, 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
But I wish it would rain (Oh how I wish that it would rain)
Cause so badly I wanna go outside
But everyone knows that a man ain't supposed to cry
I gotta cry 'cause cryin' eases my pain
People, this hurt I feel inside words can never explain
I just wish it would rain (Oh how I wish that it would rain)
Oh Lord let it rain (Oh how I wish that it would rain)
Day in, day out, my tear-stained face is pressed against the window pane
My eyes search the skies desperately for rain
Cause raindrops will hide my teardrops
And no one will ever know
That I'm cryin' when I go outside
To the world outside, my tears I refuse to explain
So I wish it would rain (Oh how I wish that it would rain)
Oh Lord please let it rain
Let it rain....
