Sunshine, blue skies, please go away
The 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, because so badly I want to go outside
But everyone knows, that a man ain't supposed to cry
Listen, I got to cry because crying eases the pain
Oh yeah, people, this hurt I feel inside, words could never explain
I just wish it would rain
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain
(I just wish it would rain)
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain
Day in day out my tear-stained face
Pressed against the windowpane
My eyes search the skies desperately for rain
Because raindrops will hide my teardrops
And no one will ever know that I'm crying
Crying when I go outside
To the world outside my tears
I refuse to explain
Oh I wish it would rain, let it rain, let it rain
I need rain to disguise the tears in my eyes
Oh, let it rain
I'm a man and I got my pride
'Til it rains I'm going to stay inside and let it rain
