[Verse 1: Ralph]
I've been away for much too long
I hope you still feel I belong
I didn't mean to cause you pain
Nothin' to lose, much more to gain
So can you stand the rain?
[Verse 2: Bobby + (All)]
Let me talk to 'em now
Just when I thought that we were through
I found my way right back to you
I can't change what happened in the past
And won't promise this time it'll last
Can you stand the rain?
(Can you stand the rain?)
Tell me, baby, can you stand the rain?
[Chorus: All]
So, on the story goes
Heaven only knows
The road of life will turn
A lesson we will learn
And no one knows but fate how we'll end
People who know
They say you can't go home again
But if you ask me
I'm happy to be home again
[Verse 3: Johnny]
I stand here all alone confused
'Cause I like living with and without you
Will our story end like a fairy tale
Or just another heartbreak
Only time will tell
[Chorus: All]
So, on the story goes
Heaven only knows
The road of life will turn
A lesson we will learn
And no one knows but fate how we'll end
People who know
They say you can't go home again
But if you ask me
I'm happy to be home again
(Home again)
[Bridge: Ricky + Ricky and Johnny]
No matter where, no matter how
No turning back, no stopping now
'Cause we may never ever pa** this way again
Just give me one more chance, let me come home again
[Chorus: All]
So, on the story goes
Heaven only knows
The road of life will turn
A lesson we will learn
And no one knows but fate how we'll end
People who know
They say you can't go home again
But if you ask me
I'm happy to be home again
(Home again)
[Spoken Outro: Mike]
So now you kinda understand the story, right
Me and the fellas trying to bring this back together
Just like old times
Y'all know when it used to be Ronnie, Bobby, Ricky, Mike, Ralph, Johnny
Take it back like that
So fellas, let's take this record home
And this time, let's stay there
