The rain falls, the rain falls down
|
The rain falls, the rain falls down
|
The rain falls, the rain falls down
|
The rain falls, the rain falls down on me
|
|
Well I gotta get up
|
but I can't get my head out of bed 'cause I went to bed late
|
So I drag myself out
|
and I wonder about how
|
I let myself get in this state
|
And my coffee's run out
|
and the milk has gone off and the last piece of bread hasgone stale
|
And I hear myself curse,
|
when the heating won't work 'cause I didn't pay the bill
|
right away
|
|
The cold air is chilling me
|
and my head is killing me and I've only got myself to blame
|
I swear that in future I'll be more together
|
I see my computer, so I go to check my mail
|
It takes me a while,
|
but eventually I get on line, and when I finally do
|
I open up my messages
|
the second one's from you....... then
|
|
The rain falls, the rain falls down
|
The rain falls, the rain falls down
|
The rain falls, the rain falls down
|
The rain falls, the rain falls down on me
|
|
So you're breaking it off
|
and you didn't think it could be said to me straight to my
|
face
|
And those rumours were true,
|
you've got somebody new, you've been taking her out in my
|
place
|
And now you want rid of me
|
you've gotta be kidding me, don't you think I want rid of
|
you?
|
And No you cannot be my friend
|
My friends they come through..........when
|
|
The rain falls, the rain falls down
|
The rain falls, the rain falls down
|
The rain falls, the rain falls down
|
The rain falls, the rain falls down on me
|
|
Well I click on your mail
|
and I drag it away to the trash and I gather my strength
|
I delete your address
|
all along with the rest of the messages you ever sent
|
'Cause I will find someone new
|
someone who'll love me too, cherish me to have and to hold
|
And you will be the one we'll see
|
Out there in the cold.........when
|
|
The rain falls, the rain falls down
|
The rain falls, the rain falls down
|
The rain falls, the rain falls down
|
The rain falls, the rain falls down .......... (ad lib) ..........on me
|
|
