"I Wish It Would Rain" lyrics
"I Wish It Would Rain"
(originally by The Temptations)
Sunshine, blue skies, please go away
My girl has found another, and gone astray
And 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)
Oh, yeah
It hurts so badly I wanna go outside (Such a lovely day)
But everybody knows that a man ain't supposed to cry
But listen, I've got to cry, because crying eases the pain
People, this hurt I feel inside
Words, I could never explain
I just wish it would rain
(Oh, how I wish that it would rain)
Oh, let it rain, let it rain
(Oh, how I wish that it would rain)
Rain
(Let it rain) Let it rain, let it rain
(Let it rain) Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain
(Let it rain) Oh, let it rain
Day in, day out, my tear-stained face
Pressed against the window pane
My eyes, they search the skies desperately for rain
'Cause raindrops will hide my teardrops
And no one will ever know
That I'm crying (Crying), I'm crying
Yeah, 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)
Ooh, baby
(Let it rain) Let it rain, let it rain
(Rain, rain, rain, let it rain) Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain
(Let it rain)
I need rain to disguise the tears in my eyes (Rain, rain, rain, let it rain)
Oh, let it rain
(Let it rain)
I'm a man and I got my pride
Till it rains I'm gonna stay inside (Let it rain)
Let it rain (Let it rain)
Oh, let it rain
Oh, let it rain
Mmm, let it rain
Oh, let it rain
