I Wish It Would Rain Lyrics By Gladys Knight And The Pips

    oohoohooh hah
    sunshine blue skies
    please go away
    my love has found another
    and gone away

    with him went my future
    my life is filled with gloom
    so day after day
    i stay locked up in my room

    i know to you
    it might sound strange
    but i wish it would rain
    how i wish that it would rain
    let it rain rain rain rain

    so badly so badly
    i want to go outside
    such a lovely day
    but i can’t stop these tears
    from fallin’ from my eyes

    listen i gotta cry
    ’cause cryin’ eases the pain
    oh yes it does
    oh yes it does
    oh yes it does

    people this hurt i feel inside
    words could never explain
    i wish it would rain
    oh how i wish that it would rain
    let it rain rain rain rain
    oh how i wish that it would rain
    oh let it rain rain
    let it do a little rain

    oh day in day out
    my tear stained face
    pressed against the window pane
    my eyes search the skies
    desperately for rain
    ’cause raindrops will hide my teardrops
    and no one will ever know
    that i’m cryin’ cryin’ cryin’
    when i go outside

    to the world outside
    my tears i refuse to explain
    i wish it would rain
    oh how i wish that it would rain
    let it rain let it rain let it rain
    ohh

    i’m a girl and i got my pride
    till it rains i’m gonna stay inside
    let it rain let it rain
    i wanna say it one more time

    i’m a girl and i got my pride
    ’til it rains i’m gonna stay inside
    let it rain let it rain
    i want to see it one more time
    let it pour and i got the power
    to let it rain not gonna stay inside
    let it rain let it rain
    ohhohhohh let it rain let it rain
