“The Rain Song” is the second track from their fifth studio album, Houses of the Holy, released in 1973. It’s a ballad whose melody was constructed by Jimmy Page at his home in Plumpton.

The Rain Song Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It is the springtime of my loving
The second season I am to know
You are the sunlight in my growing
So little warmth I've felt before
It isn't hard to feel me glowing
I watched the fire that grew so low, oooh, oh
[Verse 2]
It is the summer of my smiles
Flee from me, keepers of the gloom
Speak to me only with your eyes
It is to you I give this tune
Ain't so hard to recognize, oh
These things are clear to all from time to time, ooh
Oh, oh
[Bridge]
Ah, talk, talk, talk, talk
Hey!
[Verse 3]
I've felt the coldness of my winter
I never thought it would ever go
I cursed the gloom that set upon us, upon us, upon us
But I know that I love you so, ohhhh, oh
But I know that I love you so
[Verse 4]
These are the seasons of emotion
And like the wind, they rise and fall
This is the wonder of devotion
I see the torch we all must hold
This is the mystery of the quotient, quotient
Ah, upon us all, upon us all a little rain must fall
[Outro]
Just a little rain, oh yeah
Uhh, ooooh, yeah yeah yeah
