I Wish It Would Rain
Ooh, ha
Sunshine, blue sky, please go away
My love has found another and gone away
With him 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 (oh, how I wish that it would rain)
Let it rain, rain (rain, rain)
So badly, so badly I want to go outside (such a lovely day)
But I can't stop these tears from falling from my eyes
Listen, I gotta cry 'cause crying eases, eases the pain
Oh, yes it does (oh, yes it does, oh, yes it does)
People, this hurt I feel inside
Words could never explain
I wish it would rain (oh, how I wish that it would rain)
Let it rain, rain (rain, rain)
Oh, let it rain, rain (oh, how I wish that it would rain)
Let it rain, let it rain
(Let it rain)
Oh, day in, day out
My tear stained face pressed against the window pane
My eyes search the skies desperately for rain
'Cause raindrop will hide my teardrops
And no one will ever know that I'm crying, crying, crying
When I go outside
To the world outside, my tears, I refuse to explain
I wish it would rain (oh, how I wish that it would rain)
Let it rain, rain, let it rain, let it rain
Oh, I'm a girl and I got my pride
'Til it rains, I'm gonna stay inside
Let it rain, let it rain
I wanna say it one more time
I'm a girl and I got my pride
'Til it rains, I'm gonna stay inside
Let it rain, let it rain
Oh, let it rain, let it rain
Sunshine, blue sky, please go away
My love has found another and gone away
With him 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 (oh, how I wish that it would rain)
Let it rain, rain (rain, rain)
So badly, so badly I want to go outside (such a lovely day)
But I can't stop these tears from falling from my eyes
Listen, I gotta cry 'cause crying eases, eases the pain
Oh, yes it does (oh, yes it does, oh, yes it does)
People, this hurt I feel inside
Words could never explain
I wish it would rain (oh, how I wish that it would rain)
Let it rain, rain (rain, rain)
Oh, let it rain, rain (oh, how I wish that it would rain)
Let it rain, let it rain
(Let it rain)
Oh, day in, day out
My tear stained face pressed against the window pane
My eyes search the skies desperately for rain
'Cause raindrop will hide my teardrops
And no one will ever know that I'm crying, crying, crying
When I go outside
To the world outside, my tears, I refuse to explain
I wish it would rain (oh, how I wish that it would rain)
Let it rain, rain, let it rain, let it rain
Oh, I'm a girl and I got my pride
'Til it rains, I'm gonna stay inside
Let it rain, let it rain
I wanna say it one more time
I'm a girl and I got my pride
'Til it rains, I'm gonna stay inside
Let it rain, let it rain
Oh, let it rain, let it rain
