There were time's when the sky would bring me nothing
Except the smell of the rain of the summertime
So I left my window open just to let you come inside
Saying that you'd never leave me as a lie
There were time's that my eyes were filled with water
But all the world was desert dry
So hugged my pillow closer and I tried to close my eyes
But the sound of distance thunder make me cry
**
Lady rain, I hear you at my window
Lady rain, I need you softly falling on my face
Why did the sunshine come and take you away
I wait for you again my lady rain
I hear the sound of the breathing in the darkness
And autumn rain can turn to snow in the night
I'll be sleeping this september
But I'll leave the fire light
Just in case you feel like coming round again
And late at night when you pour down on me
You're just in time to wash all the tears away
