Temptations - I Wish It Would Rain lyrics

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

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)

'Cause so badly, I wanna go outside (Such a lovely day)

But everyone knows that a man ain't supposed to cry

Listen, I gotta cry, 'cause crying thins the pain

This hurt I feel inside, words could never explain

I just wish it would rain (Oh how I wish that it would rain)

Let it rain, rain, rain (Oh how I wish that it would rain)

Let it rain

Let it rain

Day in, day out, my tears stay phased, pressed against the window pane

I search the skies, desperately for rain

'Cause raindrops will hide my teardrops

And no one will ever know

That I'm crying, crying, when I go outside

To the world outside, my tears

I refuse to explain

Oh, I wish it would rain (Oh how I wish that it would rain)

Let it rain

Let it rain

I need rain to disguise the tears in my eyes. (Let it rain)

Let it rain

Let it rain

Listen, I'm a man and I've got my pride

'Til it rains, I'm gonna stay inside
