Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain
Telling me just what a fool I’ve been
I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain
And let me be alone againThe only girl I care about has gone away
Looking for a brand new start
But little does she know that when she left that day
Along with her she took my heartRain, please, tell me now does that seem fair
For her to steal my heart away when she don’t care?
I can’t love another when my hearts somewhere far awayThe only girl I care about has gone away
Looking for a brand new start
But little does she know that when she left that day
Along with her she took my heartRain won’t you tell her that I love her so
Please, ask the sun to set her heart aglow
Rain in her heart and let the love we knew start to growListen to the rhythm of the falling rain
Telling me just what a fool I’ve been
I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain
And let me be alone againOh, listen to the falling rain
Pitter patter, pitter patter
Oh, oh, oh, listen to the falling rain
Pitter patter, pitter patter
