Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Early in the morning
The sun was up and the sky was very blue
Without a warning
As I looked out, my thoughts returned to you
A noise in the city made the children run
And hide themselves away
And thunder boomed and lightning filled the sky
[Verse 2]
Looking from this window
A thousand rivers running past my door
Standing on an island
Looking for someone upon the shore
I can see it very clearly
Nothing's really changed
Then lightning strikes across an empty sky
[Verse 3]
Ooh, the rain is falling
Ooh, the rain is falling
Ooh, the rain is falling
Will it wash away those lonely tears?
[Verse 4]
With their brand new time transporter
They'll think maybe I fought to get away
But with all their great inventions
And all their good intentions, here I stay
Down on the corner where the sun had shone
The people gathered around
Then scattered as the raindrops hit the ground
[Verse 5]
Ooh, the rain is falling
Ooh, the rain is falling
I said, ooh, the rain is falling
Will it wash away those lonely tears?
[Verse 6]
Ooh, the rain is falling
I said, ooh, the rain is falling
Ooh, the rain keeps on falling, falling
Will it wash away those lonely tears?
