Rain
You know, if only I had one magic wish (one magic wish)
I would wish for no fortune or no fame, no
Gives us more life, more love, more prosperity, yeah
Oh, yeah yah
Oh, I really wish it would rain (I wish it would rain)
Then maybe it would wash away my pain
I'm feeling in my soul
I pray my sorrows will be long gone (long gone)
Long gone (long gone)
Before the sun rise in the morn
Oh, I wish it would rain (I wish it would rain)
Then maybe it would wash away my pain
I'm feeling in my soul
I pray my sorrows will be long gone (long gone)
Long gone (long gone)
Before the sun rise in the morn
All of my days seems so sad and blue
Need them to be sunny and bright
All of these heartaches
Pain and sorrows
Just keep giving us a fight
I'm always pretending white is black
Black is white
Black is white, oh
I teach them love
Still they fight
I try to imagine
Night is day
Day is night
Day is night
Sometimes I forget my whole life
And so I wish it would rain (I wish it would rain)
Then maybe it would wash away my pain
I'm feeling in my soul
I pray my sorrows will be long long gone
Long long gone
Before the sun rise in the morn
People dying
Children crying
And they have nowhere to run (they have nowhere to run)
In the city, it's a shame and pity
We can't seem to have any fun (can't have no fun, no no no)
But Lord I am hoping
You know I am praying
To be in the valley of the sun (where the sun shines so bright)
But I heard the mother scream (I heard the mother scream)
And I saw a young man fail
There goes another victim to the gun
And so I wish it would rain (I wish it would rain)
Then maybe it would wash away my pain
I'm feeling in my soul
I pray my sorrows will be long long gone
Long long gone
Before the sun rise in the morn
Rise in the morning (rise in the morning)
Rise in the morn (rise in the morn)
Rise in the morning (rise in the morning)
Cause it's a bloodshed
Born in the ghetto
It's a bloodshed
Everywhere I go
But all the tears we cry
Won't ease the sorrow
We'll just have to hope and wish and pray
For a better tomorrow
So I really wish it would rain (I wish it would rain)
Then maybe it will wash away my pain
I'm feeling in my soul
I pray my sorrows will be long gone (long gone)
Long gone (long gone)
Before the sun rise in the morn
Oh, I wish it would rain (I wish it would rain)
Then maybe it would wash away my pain
I'm feeling in my soul
I pray my sorrows will be long long gone
Long long gone
Before the sun rise in the morn
Rise in the morning (rise in the morning)
Rise in the morn (rise in the morn)
Rise in the morning (rise in the morning)
Rise in the morn
Rise in the morning
Yeah, man
I would wish for no fortune or no fame, no
Gives us more life, more love, more prosperity, yeah
Oh, yeah yah
Oh, I really wish it would rain (I wish it would rain)
Then maybe it would wash away my pain
I'm feeling in my soul
I pray my sorrows will be long gone (long gone)
Long gone (long gone)
Before the sun rise in the morn
Oh, I wish it would rain (I wish it would rain)
Then maybe it would wash away my pain
I'm feeling in my soul
I pray my sorrows will be long gone (long gone)
Long gone (long gone)
Before the sun rise in the morn
All of my days seems so sad and blue
Need them to be sunny and bright
All of these heartaches
Pain and sorrows
Just keep giving us a fight
I'm always pretending white is black
Black is white
Black is white, oh
I teach them love
Still they fight

Night is day
Day is night
Day is night
Sometimes I forget my whole life
And so I wish it would rain (I wish it would rain)
Then maybe it would wash away my pain
I'm feeling in my soul
I pray my sorrows will be long long gone
Long long gone
Before the sun rise in the morn

Long long gone
Before the sun rise in the morn
Rise in the morning (rise in the morning)
Rise in the morn (rise in the morn)
Rise in the morning (rise in the morning)
Rise in the morn
Rise in the morning
Yeah, man
