Lyrics

I watch it raining
Tapping down upon my window pane
I hate the weatherman
It’s always the same

I’m looking for the one in my life
But I guess I’ll see those clouds again tonight

So rain on, rainy day
It really doesn’t matter if the sky’s looking grey
Rain on, let it pour
You know I’m only waiting ’till the clouds roll away
Once more

I heard you’re leaving
Say goodbye and let me drift away
No way I’m coming back
You know I won’t stay

You’ve taken all the sun from my life
And I guess I’ll be alone again tonight

So rain on, rainy day
It really doesn’t matter if the sky’s looking grey
Rain on, let it pour
You know I’m only waiting ’til the clouds roll away
Once more

You took away the sun from my life
And I guess I’ll be alone again tonight

So rain on, rainy day
It really doesn’t matter if the sky’s looking grey
Rain on, let it pour
You know I’m only waiting ’til the clouds roll away…
Ooh, once more
Ooh ooh ooh, once more
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh
Ooh ooh ooh, once more
