lyrics

Can’t Stand The Rain:

I can’t stand the rain, Washing me down again.
Soaking the soul of me, Drenching my dignity.
I won’t cry no more, I gotta let it go,
But I still hold the pain,
So I can’t stand the rain.

You know I Cursed the Sun. Burning my back as I run
And yet I’d rather be, Baking in misery.
You know I laughed at the snow, I stood out in the cold,
And you know I’d do it again,
‘cos man I can’t stand the rain.

And you know it, So don’t doubt it,
Your love, I can’t live without it,
I see it, I believe it,
‘Cos your love’s got the best of me

And one time long ago, we couldn’t let it go,
All those sunny days,
Now this far down the line, with love running out of time,
All it does rain.

I can’t stand the rain. Falling like tears again
Wash down my memory. Drowning the hope in me.
So I’m a lonely man, With just the night on my hands.
And I can take the blame,
But I can’t take this rain.


I wouldn’t lie to you. There ain’t a thing I can do.
Wish I could turn back time, Get to walk in the sweet sunshine.
And I could hold you close, I wouldn’t ever let you go.
Now nothings gonna be the same.
And I can’t stand this rain

And you know it, So don’t doubt it,
Your love, I can’t live without it,
I see it, I believe it,
‘Cos your love’s got the best of me

And one time long ago, we couldn’t let it go,
All those sunny days,
Now this far down the line, with love running out of time,
All it does rain.

I can’t stand the rain, Washing me down again.
Soaking the soul of me, Drenching my dignity.
I won’t cry no more, I gotta let it go,
But I still hold the pain,
So I can’t stand the rain.

And you know it, So don’t doubt it,
Your love, I can’t live without it,
I see it, I believe it,
‘Cos your love’s got the best of me

And one time long ago, we couldn’t let it go,
All those sunny days,
Now this far down the line, with love running out of time,
All it does rain.
