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
But I wish it would rain
Oh how I wish that it would rain

'Cause so badly I wanna go outside
But everyone knows that a man ain't supposed to cry
I gotta cry 'cause cryin' is such a pain, oh yeah
People, this hurt I feel inside words can never explain
I just wish it would rain
Oh how I wish that it would rain
Rain, rain, rain
Oh how I wish that it would rain

Day in, day out, my tear-stained face is
pressed against the window pane
I search the skies desperately for rain
'Cause raindrops will hide my teardrops
And no one will ever know
That I'm cryin', cryin' when I go outside
To the world outside, my tears I refuse to explain
Oh, I wish it would rain
Oh how I wish that it would rain

Let it rain, let it rain
I need rain to disguise the tears in my eyes...
