Twenty-seventh of January, I think he died a year ago today.
|
She's crying on my shoulder and begging me to make the hurting go away.
|
Pretty brown eyes, tears full of guilt
|
A heart full of pain and fear
|
I want to tell her it's okay but we both know she's the reason he's not here.
|
|
(Mm)
|
I keep on crying but it doesn't seem to help at all.
|
(Seem to help at all)
|
With every single tear drop, it's like another rain drop falls.
|
And I would (and I would) if I could (if I could)
|
But the try would be in vein (the try would be in vein).
|
Said no matter what I do, I can't stop the rain.
|
So I cry (Oooh)
|
I can't stop the rain, stop the rain (Oooh)
|
I can't stop the rain, stop the rain
|
If I could, ya know I would, but the try would be in vein.
|
So I cry oooh, I can't stop the rain, stop the rain.
|
|
Faded picture in a little gold locket
|
She never takes it off.
|
I know it's small but it's heavy,
|
Cause it's filled with the guilt of knowing she's why his life is lost.
|
I feel bad for her but I'm having mixed emotions,
|
'Cause he was a friend of mine.
|
And somewhere in the deepest, darkest part of my mind,
|
I wish it was her that died that night.
|
(Mm)
|
I keep on crying but it doesn't seem to help at all.
|
(Seem to help at all)
|
With every single tear drop, it's like another rain drop falls.
|
And I would (and I would) if I could (if I could)
|
But the try would be in vein (the try would be in vein).
|
Said no matter what I do, I can't stop the rain.
|
So I cry (Oooh)
|
I can't stop the rain, stop the rain (Oooh)
|
I can't stop the rain, stop the rain
|
If I could, ya know I would but the try would be in vein.
|
So I cry oooh, I can't stop the rain, stop the rain.
|
|
One rainy Saturday night, a happy anniversary
|
Celebrating love, champagne all around
|
They had a little too much to drink.
|
Got in the car, and he can barely stand up
|
So she thinketh that she drive
|
Staring at him not the road, sudden jerk of the wheel
|
And the car flipped about three times
|
|
(Mm)
|
I keep on crying but it doesn't seem to help at all.
|
(Seem to help at all)
|
With every single tear drop, it's like another rain drop falls.
|
And I would (and I would) if I could (if I could)
|
But the try would be in vein (the try would be in vein).
|
Said no matter what I do, I can't stop the rain.

So I cry (Oooh)
|
I can't stop the rain, stop the rain (Oooh)
|
I can't stop the rain, stop the rain
|
Said if I could, ya know I would, but the try would be in vein.
|
So I cry oooh, I can't stop the rain, stop the rain.
