[Verse 1]
I can't stop the rain
But I will keep you dry
If the shore feels far away
I'll be by your side
And when the storms arise
I will shelter you
When your sky is gray
I will give you blue
[Verse 2]
I can't move a mountain (I can't move, I can't move)
I am just a man (just a man, understand)
I can't undo what's happened (can't un-[do], but for you)
But I will understand (just a man, understand)
And although it may hurt
Baby, I'll tell you the truth
'Cause when your sky is gray
I will give you blue
[Verse 3]
I can't stop the rain (I can't stop, stop the rain)
But I will wipe your tears (but for you, stop it rain)
Oh, I wish I could take what hurts you (if I could, then I would)
And just make it disappear (just for you)
But I can't work no miracles
But I'll do what I can do
When your sky is gray
Well baby, I will give you blue
When your sky is gray
I will give you blue
Give you blue
