"Home Again" lyrics

I've been away for much too long
I hope you still feel I belong
I didn't mean to cause you pain
Nothin' to lose, much more to gain
So can you stand the rain?

Let me talk to 'em, Ralph
Just when I thought that we were through
I found my way right back to you
I can't change what happened in the past
And won't promise this time it'll last
Can you stand the rain?
(Can you stand the rain?)
Tell me, baby, can you stand the rain?

So, on the story goes (On the story goes)
Heaven only knows (Heaven only knows)
The road of life will turn (The road of life, the road of life)
A lesson we will learn (Will turn, lessons we will learn)
And no one knows but fate how we'll end (Tell me)
People who know
They say you can't go home again
But if you ask me
I'm happy to be home again

I stand here all alone confused
'Cause I like living with and without you, oh, oh, oh
Will our story end like a fairytale
Or just another heartbreak
Only time will tell
(Can you stand the rain?)

So, on the story goes (Story goes) (Oh)
Heaven only knows (Heaven only knows)
The road of life will turn
A lesson we will learn (A lesson we will learn, yeah)
And no one knows but fate how we'll end (Tell me)
People who know
They say you can't go home again (Yeah, yeah)
But if you ask me
I'm happy to be home again
(Oh yeah, home again)

No matter where, no matter how
No turning back, no stopping now
'Cause we may never ever pass this way again
Just give me one more chance, let me come home again

So, on the story goes
Heaven only knows (Only knows)
The road of life will turn
A lesson we will learn
And no one knows but fate how we'll end (Oh, oh)
People who know
They say you can't go home again
But if you ask me
I'm happy to be home again
(Home again)

So now you kinda understand the story, right
Me and the fellas tryna bring this back together
Just like old times (Bring us home again)
Y'all know when it used to be Ronnie, Bobby, Ricky, Mike, Ralph, Johnny
Take it back like that
(Michael, take your time, tell 'em one time, where we're comin' from)
So fellas, let's take this record home (Back home again)
And this time, let's stay there
