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
I know to you, it might sound strange
But I wish it would rain
How I wish it would rain, rain, rain, rain
How I wish it would rain, rain, rain, rain
Hurts so badly, I wanna go outside
But everyone knows that a man ain't supposed to cry
Hey listen, I gotta cry 'cause crying, oh oh, eases the pain
Even this hurt I feel inside
Words could not explain, I just wish it would rain
How I wish it would rain, rain, rain, rain
How I wish it would rain, rain, rain, rain

Words could not explain, I just wish it would rain
How I wish it would rain, rain, rain, rain
How I wish it would rain, rain, rain, rain
Oh yeah.. oh let it rain!
Good God, let it rain
How I wish it would rain, rain, rain, rain
