(Whitfield, Strong, Penzabine)

Sunshine, blue skies, please go away

My love has found another, gone away

Withered up my future, my life is filled with gloom

Day after day I stay locked up in my room

I know to you it might sound strange

But I wish it would rain

Curse so badly, I don't want to go outside

Everyone knows that a man ain't supposed to cry



Listen, I've got to cry, 'cause crying sheds the pain

To the world outside my tears I refuse to explain

I wish it would rain

Let it rain



Looking down at my tear stained face pressed against the window pane

But I search the sky desperately for rain

'cause raindrops will hide my teardrops, no one will ever know

When 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
