I can hear you outside a knockin' lonely rain
Beatin' out your rhythm on my window pane
Since she's gone the melody's a sad refrain
And all the seasons never change

Lonely rain you sure make it hard to smile
Won't you go and let the sun shine a while
Cause it's bad enough she's gone without you hanging on
Whispering her name lonely rain

Once we ran and laughed in your summer showers
She brushed you from the petals of the lover's flower
And hidden safe from you we used to dream for hours
Shelter my love's magic power

Lonely rain you sure make it hard to smile
Lonely rain you sure make it hard to smile
