[Chorus]
The rain falls, the rain falls down
The rain falls, the rain falls down
The rain falls, the rain falls down
The rain falls, the rain falls down
On me

[Verse 1]
Well I gotta get up
But I can't get my head out of bed
'Cause I went to bed late
So I drag myself out
And I wonder about
How I let myself get in this state

[Verse 2]
And my coffee's run out
And the milk has gone off
And the last piece of bread has gone stale
And I hear myself curse
When the heating won't work
'Cause I didn't pay the bill right away

[Verse 3]
The cold air is chilling me
And my head is killing me
And I've only got myself to blame
I swear that in future I'll be more together
I see my computer
So I go to check my mail
[Verse 4]
Well it takes me a while
But eventually I get on line
And when I finally do
I open up my messages
The second one's from you
Then...

[Chorus]
...the rain falls, the rain falls down
The rain falls, the rain falls down
The rain falls, the rain falls down
How the rain falls, the rain falls down
On me

[Verse 5]
So you're breaking it off
And you didn't think it could be
Said to me straight to my face
So those rumours were true
You've got somebody new
You've been taking her out in my place

[Verse 6]
And now you want rid of me
You've gotta be kidding me
Don't you think I want rid of you?
And no, you cannot be my friend
My friends they'd come through
When...
[Chorus]
...the rain falls, the rain falls down
How the rain falls, the rain falls down
The rain falls, the rain falls down
How the rain falls, the rain falls down
On me

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Verse 7]
Well I click on your mail
And I drag it away to the trash
And I gather my strength
I delete your address
All along with the rest
Of the messages you ever sent

[Verse 8]
'Cause I will find someone new
Someone who'll love me too
Cherish me to have and to hold
And you will be the one we'll see
Out there in the cold
When...

[Chorus]
...the rain falls
The rain falls, the rain falls down
The rain falls, the rain falls down
The rain falls, the rain falls down
The rain falls, the rain falls down
How the rain falls, the rain falls down
The rain falls, the rain falls down
How the rain falls, the rain falls down
The rain falls, the rain falls down
How the rain falls, the rain falls down
The rain falls, the rain falls down
How the rain falls, the rain falls down
On me
On me
On me
