I Wish It Would Rain

Sunshine blue skies please go away The 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, 'Cause so badly I wanna go outside But everyone knows that a man ain't supposed to cry Listen, I gotta cry 'cause crying eases the pain, Oh yeah, people this hurt I feel inside. Words could never explain, I just wish it would rain. Day in day out my tear-stained face Pressed against the window pain, My eyes search the skies desperately for rain, Cause rain-drops will hide my tear -drops 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, Let it rain, let it rain. I need rain to disguise the tears in my eyes. Oh, let it rain. I'm a man and I got my pride Til' it rains I'm gonna stay inside and let it rain. --- I Wish It Would Rain - Gladys Knight and Gladys Knight & the Pips
