I knew down deep inside, somethin' wasn't right
Enough to grip my heart an' wake me in the night
But the weather had looked so good in the mornin'
That I failed to heed the flash-flood warnin'

And the rain it falls down
But I'm standin' here with no umbrella again
The rain falls down but I'm standin' here with no umbrella
The rain it falls down, the rain it falls down

The first flash blinded me, it caught me by surprise
Until the repercussion hit, it opened up my eyes
Sometimes lightnin' strikes without rhyme or reason
When it rains, it pours in monsoon season

And the rain it falls down
But I'm standin' here with no umbrella again
The rain falls down, I'm standin' here with no umbrella again
The rain it falls down, the rain it falls down

Sometimes the knife runs deeper than the blade
Sometimes the best's still missing when it's made
Cinderella found the writer had offended
What did she do when the fairytale had ended?

And the rain it falls down
An' I'm standin' here with no umbrella again
The rain falls down, I'm standin' here with no umbrella
The rain it falls down, the rain it falls down

And the rain it falls down
I'm standin' here with no umbrella again
The rain it falls down and the rain
The rain and the rain, the rain
