When the rain comes down again When the clouds come out again Please say you're lonely Please say you'll let me keep you dry You weigh so much more when you are smiling And you're a feather when you frown I can't help you stand when you're not falling And I can't pick you up when you're not down When the rain comes down again When the clouds come out again Please say you're lonely Please say you'll let me keep you dry You said colors all look brighter in the sunlight But I see so much better in the dark You floated off to find your friends out on the fire escape And I know I can't follow you that far I can't follow you Maybe love is a flame you say That flickers and fades away Nobody can make it rain But I'm gonna wait And if your love is a flame it's strange To wish for the clouds and the pouring rain When you're happy you just don't need me around When the rain comes down again When the clouds come out again Please say you're lonely Please say you'll let me keep you dry
