The Temptations
I Wish It Would Rain (Single Version)
Sunshine, blue skies, please go away
My girl has found another and gone away
With her went my future, my life is filled with gloom
So day after day, I stay locked up in my room
I know to you it might sound strange
But I wish it would rain
(Oh how I wish that it would rain)
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
'Cause so badly I wanna go outside
(Such a lovely day)
When everyone knows that a man ain't supposed to cry
Listen, I got to cry 'cause crying, ooh eases the pain, oh yeah
People this hurt I feel inside words could never explain
I just wish it would rain
(Oh, how I wish that it would rain)
Oh, let it rain, rain, rain, rain
(Oh, how I wish that it would rain)
Ooh baby, let it rain
(Let it rain)
Oh yeah, let it rain
Day in day out, my tears stained face
Pressed against the window pane
My eyes search the skies desperately for rain
'Cause rain drops will hide my teardrops
And no one will ever know
That I'm crying, crying when I go outside
(Crying, crying, crying)
To the world outside my tears I refuse to explain
Oh, I wish it would rain
(Oh, how I wish that it would rain)
Ooh baby, lt it rain, let it rain
(Let it rain, let it rain)
I need rain to disguise the tears in my eyes
(Let it rain, let it rain)
Oh, let it rain, oh yeah, yeah
(Let it rain, let it rain)
Listen, I'm a man, I ain't got no pride
(Let it rain, let it rain)
Till it rains, I'm gonna stay inside
Let it rain
Let it rain
