Lyrics to The Rain

Some days go on forever

Sometimes the weatherman says rain

We’ve all had days staring blankly out the window

Watching all the plans we made go down the drain



She had a long day in the city

And it’s finally her turn to complain

I tried to improvise and told her about the time

I had to buy a rented tux with a whiskey stain

My little story didn’t seem to impress her

I was just trying to cheer you up, baby

I can make it better



Well, I’ll get around to it when the sky turns blue, but

‘Til then it’s gonna have to wait

I’ll do it, love to do it for you baby

But I can’t turn off the rain

And it’s hard to be patient when you’re waiting at the station

Worrying never did anything

I’ll do it for you baby but I can’t turn off the rain, rain, rain



Oh, it’s been one of those days

Trying to find a rock to crawl under

A place to hide my face and I just

Want to go pretend like I don’t have any friends, but

You have the nerve to call and interrupt my little, pity party

Just to ask me how it went

Well how does it sound like it went, man?

I don’t know, close the door and threw my phone

And sat down on the bed, like what the hell

Like a ghost I felt that guilt surround my soul

And I could hear my grandpa’s voice saying “listen up boy, listen well‿BR>

Well, we’ll get around to it when the sky turns blue, but

‘Til then it’s gonna have to wait

We’ll do it, we’ll go outside

But we can’t turn off the rain

And it’s hard to be patient when you’re waiting at the station

Worrying never did anything

We’ll do it, but we can’t turn off the rain



Here come the home

Here come the kids

There goes the money you were fronted

Here come the wave

It’s headed straight at everything that you just bought

And now you’re standing on what just became your FEMA parking lot

He said “Baby I don’t think that I could make good on that promise this time.

Oh, that diamond’s out of reach.‿BR> She said, “Honey I don’t need a ring, just you more than anything.

Now that we’ve lost everything lets just lie on this beach together.

I know you love me, you’re just saving it for better weather‿BR>

We’ll get around to it when the sky turns blue, but

‘Til then it’s gonna have to wait

We’ll do it; oh, we’ll do it all

But we can’t turn off the rain

And it’s hard to be patient when you’re waiting at the station

Worrying never did anything

We’ll do it, baby, oh we’ll do it

Yeah we’ll do it all

But we can’t turn off the rain
