I Wish It Would Rain Songtext
von Aretha Franklin

Sunshine, blue skies, please go
My man has found another and gone astray
With him went my future, my life is filled with gloom
So day after day, I stay locked up in my room
I know you ooh, it may sound strange, but I wish it would rain

Ooh yeah, yeah (rain)
I wish it would rain (rain)
Oh yes, I do

So badly I, I wanna go outside
But I know deep in my heart, that I shouldn′t cry (cry)
But I just got to cry, ooh yeah
Because crying eases my pain
To the world outside, my tears, I refuse to explain
I just wish it would rain (rain)


(Rain) oh yeah (rain)
Uh-huh (rain, rain)
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain
(Rain, rain)
Oh (oh), yeah so bad (oh)
Yeah (so bad), so bad (rain), rain (thunder), thunder
(Uh-huh) uh-huh, (uh-huh) uh-huh
(Uh) uh (uh), uh (uh), uh (uh) uh
Well, ooh well, oh well, oh well

Day in, day out, my tear-stained face
Stays pressed against the window pain (uh-huh)
My eyes search the skies desperately for rain (uh-huh)
'Cause raindrops will hide my teardrops
And no one will ever know that I′m crying, crying
This hurt I feel inside, words could never explain
Oh, I wish it would rain

(Rain) I wish it would rain (rain, rain)
You're walking all over, walking all over my heart, boy
I wish it would rain
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain all over the world, baby
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain, let it rain (rain)
All over the world
I just wonder why you wanna be so cold with me, ah baby
Why you, why you, why you wanna be so hard with me? Ooh boy
