Why Wont it Rain (lyrics)

Another beautiful day outside
And you know its gettin’ so hard to hide
All these tear drops streamin’ down my face
God, you know I feel like such a disgrace
And that same old question is hauntin’ me
Why wont it rain?

Why wont the rain come down on me and wash it all away
‘Cause this drought’s really got a hold on me
Can’t take another day.
Can’t stand to see the sunshine
When I’m feelin’ so damn hurt inside
And you know I cant let them see me cry
Goddamn, why wont it rain.

Just a shower’s all I’m askin’ for
No, I don’t need no great big storm
But however it may take form
I just need a little rain.

I don’t need no rainbow afterwards
I know to you that might sound absurd
But my pain, the rain it will absorb
And that’s all the reward I’m looking’ for.

Why wont the rain come down on me and wash it all away
‘Cause this drought’s really got a hold on me
Can’t take another day.
Can’t stand to see the sunshine
When I’m feelin’ so damn hurt inside
And you know I cant let them see me cry
Goddamn, why wont it rain.

Think I can see some dark clouds up ahead
And the settin sun's turnin the whole damn sky blood red
I should probably run inside for cover, but instead
I think I'll just enjoy the view.

No, I don’t need no rainbow afterwards
I know to you that might sound absurd
But my pain, the rain it will absorb
And that’s all the reward I’m looking’ for.

‘Cause I can’t stand to see the sunshine
When I’m feelin’ so damn hurt inside
And you know I cant let them see me cry
I just need a little rain.
