I Wish It Would Rain - The Temptations

Sunshine, blue skies, please go away

My man has found another, and gone away

With him 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)

But i can’t go no i can’t let him see me cryin'

But listen, i got to cry, cuz crying, ooooooooh

Is the pain, oh yeah

You know people, this hurt i feel inside

Words, they, could never explain

I 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)

Ooooooh baby

Let it rain (rain, rain)

Oh yeah, let it rain

Day in and day out, my tears stained face

Pressed against my window pane

My eye search the skies, well, desperately for rain

Cause rain drops will hide my teardrops and no one will ever know

That i’m crying (crying) crying (crying)

When i go outside

To the world outside my tears i refuse to explain

I just wish it would rain (oh how i wish that it would rain)

Rain, rain, rain (oh how i wish that it would rain)

Ooooh baby

Let it rain

I need rain to disguise the tears in my eyes

Yeah, you know i’m a man, i ain’t got no pride

Til it rains, i’m gonna stay inside

Let it rain, let it rain

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah…

Oh how i wish that it would rain
