Penzabene-Strong-Whitfield Sunshine, blue skies, please go away My love has found another, gone away Withered up my future, my life is filled with gloom Day after day I stay locked up in my room I know to you it might sound strange But I wish it would rain, mmm. Curse so badly, I don't want to go outside Everyone knows that a man ain't supposed to cry Listen to me, I've got to cry, 'cause crying sheds the pain
To the world outside my tears I refuse to explain I wish it would rain. (Let it rain). I'm looking down and my tear-stained face pressed against the window pane But I search the sky desperately for rain 'Cause raindrops will hide my teardrops, no one will ever know When I'm crying, crying, when I go outside To the world outside my tears I refuse to explain I wish it would rain. Let it rain.
