You know I never meant to see you again
But I only passed by as a friend, yeah, mm
All this time I've stayed out of sight
I started wondering why, yeah

Now I, oh now I wish it would rain (girl I wish it would rain)
Rain down on me (yeah yeah, yeah yeah, I wish)
Oh now I wish it would rain (yeah)
Rain down on me (la da da da da da)

You said you didn't need me in your life
Oh, I guess you were right, yeah yeah
Ooh, I never meant to cause you no pain
But it looks like I did it again, yeah

Oh now I, oh now I wish it would rain 
Rain down on me (down on me, yeah, oh how I wish)
Oh now I wish it would rain
Rain down on me (da da da da da)
Oh now I wish it would rain
Rain down on me (rain down on me)
Oh now I wish it would rain
Rain down on me (brothers won't you help me sing this song)

Though your hurt is gone
Mine's hangin' on inside
And I know, it's getting me through this
I've waited, and waited on your side
And I know, I know (I know)

I know I never meant to, never meant to
Never meant to cause you no pain
And I realize I let you down
But I know in my heart of hearts
I know I'm never gonna hold you again

Rain, yeah
Rain down on me
Da da da da da da

Oh now I wish it would rain
Rain down on me
Oh now I wish it would rain
Rain down on me
Rain down, rain down on me, yeah
Oh now I wish it would rain
Rain down on me

I wish, I wish it would rain
It would rain down on me
Rain, yeah
Oh, now I wish it would rain
