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