"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 guy, she's gone away
With her went my future, my life is filled with gloom
And day after day I stay locked up in my room
I know to you this might sound strange
But I wish it would rain, mmm
Let it rain, oh yeah

Day in day out my tear-stained face
Is pressed against the window pane
My eyes search the skies desperately for rain
Because rain drops will hide my tear drops
No one will ever know that I'm crying
Crying when I go outside
To the world outside my tears I refuse to explain
I wish it would rain
Let it rain, oooh
Let it fall

God so badly I wanna go outside
But everybody knows that a man ain't supposed to cry
Listen, I gotta cry 'cause crying eases my pain, oh yeah
People, this hurt I feel inside
No words could never explain
I wish it would rain
Let it rain, oh
Let it fall
I wish it would rain
Let it rain
Let it rain
Let it fall
Let it rain
Let it fall
Let it rain
Let it fall...
