I Wish It Would Rain - Gladys Knight & The Pips

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

But day after day I stay locked up in my room

I know to you it might sound strange

But I wish it would rain

'Cause so badly, I wanna go outside

'Cause everybody knows

That a man ain’t supposed to cry

Listen, I gotta cry

'Cause cryin', it eases the pain, oh, yeah

People, this hurt I feel inside

Words could never explain

How I wish it would rain

How I wish that it would rain

(Rain, rain, yeah)

How I wish that it would rain

(Rain)

Day in day out my tears they fade

Pressed against the window pane

My eyes search the skies desperately for rain

'Cause raindrops will hide the teardrops

And no one will ever know that I’m cryin' when I go outside

To the world outside my tears I refuse to explain

How I wish it would rain

How I wish that it would rain

(Rain)

How I wish that it would rain

(Make me cry now)

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

But day after day I stay locked up in my room

I know to you it might sound strange

But I wish it would rain

How I wish that it would rain

(Rain, rain)

How I wish that it would rain

(Rain)

How I wish that it would rain

How I wish that it would rain…
