Ha, yeah
Rule baby, ha

It′s just those rainy days
Spend a lifetime, tryin' to wash away
Until the sun comes out and shines again
Smile for me, smile for me

All of those rainy days
Spend your lifetime, tryin′ to wash away
Until the sun shines and I see your face
Smile at me, smile at me


We were always livin' so crazy and sexy and cool
And we began to love it (began to love it)
Watchin' all of the heartache and pain of the world
And thinkin′ nothin′ of it (thinkin' nothin′ of it)
And baby, I got a love for you
And I know that you got me, baby
But every time the sun shines bright
It gets so cloudy, yeah

It's just those rainy days
Spend a lifetime tryin′ to wash away (tryna wash away)
Until the sun comes out and shines again
Smile for me, smile for me

All of those rainy days
Spend your lifetime tryin' to wash away
Until the sun shines and I see your face
Smile at me, smile at me

′Cause nobody loves the rain
Can't stand it but it always seems to fall
Baby, handle it (baby, didn't we tell you before)
About chasin′ those waterfalls (chasin′ waterfalls)
Yeah

'Cause nobody loves the rain
Can′t stand it, but it always seems to fall
(Baby, handle it) baby, what did we tell you before
About chasin' those waterfalls, yeah


Yeah baby, sometimes the Rule don′t mind the rain
It kinda feels like I'm drownin′ in the Lord's pain
Until the sun comes out and shines again
Smile, and give me a reason to keep on believin'
That everything ain′t misleadin′

And I kiss the clouds on them rainy days
And smile for you, when the skies are gray
Babe, 'cause I′m a teardrop away from cryin'
And a few shots away from dyin′

Dear Lord, would you shower my pain?
Let it rain, let it rain on me
While I cherish the air I breathe
I'm an angel, that can′t soar, can't fly
And I mastered it, Lord knows why

It's just those rainy days
Spend a lifetime tryin′ to wash away
Until the sun comes out and shines again
Smile for me, smile for me

All of those rainy days
Spend your lifetime tryin′ to wash away (spend your lifetime)
Until the sun shines and I see your face ('til the sun shines)
Smile at me, smile at me (oh, smile at me)

I feel like an angel with my broken wings
So I can soar again, Lord, let me in
Baby, through all the passion, the pain, and the hurt, I feel like I′m fallin', yeah

And for those who love it (stand up)
And for those who can′t take it (stand up)
Baby, we gonna make it
In the words of Marvin Gaye, "War is not the answer"

Nobody loves the rain (can't stand it)
But it always seems to fall (baby, handle it)
Baby, didn′t we tell you before about chasin' those waterfalls
Don't go chasin′ (yeah) waterfalls

Nobody loves the rain (can′t stand it)
But it always seems to fall (baby, handle it)
Baby, didn't we tell you before about chasin′ those waterfalls
Yeah

It's just those rainy days
Spend a lifetime tryin′ to wash away
Until the sun come out and shines again
Smile for me, smile for me

All of those rainy days, spend your lifetime tryin' to wash away
Until the sun shines and I see your face (oh no, no)
Smile at me, smile at me (smile, smile, smile, smile)
Smile, smile, smile, smile, smile, ′til the sun shines, just smile for me

Just smile for me, just smile at me
Know in your heart, that we are free
Free to believe, whatever we feel
So feel somethin' real, baby
Hey, hey
