Lyrics
A black cat moans when he's burnin' with the fever
A stray dog howls when he's lonely in the night
A woman goes crazy with the thoughts of retribution
Then a man starts weepin' when he's sick and tired of life, oh
I keep on dreamin' dreams of tomorrow
Feel I'm wastin' my time lightin' candles in the wind
Always takin' my chances on the promise of the future
But a heart full of sorrow paints a lonely tapestry
The sun is shinin'
Babe, but it's rainin' in my heart
No one understands the heartache
No one feels the pain
No one ever sees the tears
When you're crying in the rain
When you're crying in the rain
Crying in the rain
I can never deny all the sweet things that I've tasted
Though I've been mistreated, I keep coming back for more
I know where I'm goin', there's no hope for absolution
I can't seem to separate the good times from the bad
The sun is shinin'
Ooh baby, it's still rainin' in my heart
No one understands the heartache
No one feels the pain
No one ever sees the tears
When you're crying in the rain
When you're crying in the rain
When you're crying in the rain
When you're crying in the rain
Ooh, babe
The sun is shinin'
But it's rainin' in my heart
No one understands the heartache
No one feels the pain
No one ever sees the tears
When you're crying in the rain
When you're crying in the rain
When you're crying in the rain
When you're crying in the rain
When you're crying in the rain, rain, rain
Whoa-oh
