Marvin Gaye - I Wish It Would Rain Lyrics

Oh, sunshine, blue skies, please go away
My girl has found another and gone away
Oh, with her went my future, and my life is filled with gloom
So day after day, I stay locked up in my room
I know to you, oh, it might sound strange but I wish it would rain
Ooh-oh, wish it would rain
Ooh-oh

'Cause so badly, so badly I wanna go outside
But everybody knows that a man ain't supposed to cry
Listen children, I got to cry, 'cause crying, crying, crying eases the pain
Oh yeah now, people, this hurt I feel inside
Words could never explain, I wish it would rain

Ooh-oh, come on rain
Oh, ooh, let it rain
Oh baby
Let it rain, ooh
Oh, Lord

Day in day out my tear-stained face
Pressed against the window pane
And my eyes search the skies desperately for rain
'Cause rain drops will hide my teardrops
And no one will ever know that I'm crying, crying
Crying when I go outside
To the world outside my tears
I refuse to explain, I just wish it would rain
Ooh-oh, come on rain
Oh, Lord
Rain, rain, oh, rain
Come on rain
I wish it would rain
I'm a man and I got my pride but
'Til it rains, gon' stay inside
Oh, rain
Let it rain
Oh, rain
Oh, rain
Come on, come on
