| Chorus:
|
| I can’t let the rain bring me down, no, I don’t think so (coming down,
|
| Coming down, coming down, down…)
|
| I can’t let the rain bring me down, no, I don’t think so (coming down,
|
| Coming down, coming down, down…)
|
| I’m all alone in my house, my wife and baby just moved out (no!)
|
| Bills have not been paid
|
| Mortgage is due and I have a job to take
|
| Somebody called and want to take her car
|
| Can’t find refuge in a neighborhood bar, no (no!)
|
| Supposedly I’m in arrears
|
| Rain is coming down I have to hide a tear
|
| Chorus
|
| I’ve been thought never to question why
|
| Keep the faith and you shall arise (no!)
|
| Nothing is going my way
|
| Will I ever live to see a better day
|
| When this world frown turns upside down
|
| It’s hard to keep with no one else around (no!)
|
| I’m so confused, can’t tell wrong from right
|
| Toss and turn, can’t survive the night
|
| I can’t worry and I can’t complain
|
| I’m not the only one who can feel the pain (no!)
|
| Can’t break down, gotta weather the storm (I don’t think so)
|
| It’s only gonna rain for a little while
|
| Chorus
|
| All these things going through my head
|
| If I only knew what lied ahead
|
| I might be down but I’m not out
|
| (The rain will fall, the will fall, — repeat)
|
| Gotta stand my ground gotta work it out
|
| Gotta wear a smile on the outside
|
| To cover up the pain on the inside
|
| (The rain will fall — (repeat))
|
| Seem like my life has gone astray
|
| Will this rain ever go away
|
| Don’t know my ups from my downs
|
| Seems like my life cannot be found
|
| I’ve got children who depend on me
|
| I got to be there for my family
|
| All my needs I begin to doubt
|
| There are time when I wish I died
|
| («The rain will fall», repeat all the way through the end)
|
| I don’t know if I trust myself
|
| Am I ever gonna get somewhere
|
| All this pain from all this rain
|
| How much more can I sustain. |
