Remember when we used to talk the hours away 
Remember when we laughed together 
Lately I'm noticing a change of heart 
And noticing the changing weather 
 
I've been in love before and it always ends the same 
I've heard the thunder now I am waiting for the rain 
Waiting for the rain, waiting for the rain 
 
Am I the fool who stands at the edge of his life 
And burns his bridge before he crosses 
Why do I believe that I can make it work 
When any fool would count his losses 
 
I've been in love before and it always ends the same 
I've heard the thunder now I am waiting for the rain 
Waiting for the rain, yeah, waiting, waiting 
 
Painted smile on empty face 
Protocol maintained 
Missing piece of broken heart 
Waiting for the rain 
 
I've been in love before and it always ends the same 
I've heard the thunder now I am waiting for the rain 
I've been in love before and it always ends the same 
Whoa, yeah, oh yeah, I'm waiting for the rain 
 
Waiting for the rain, waiting, waiting 
Waiting for the rain
