It was raining hard in Houston when I ran into her
I searched for conversation but I was lost for words
Then a cloud of tear filled memories came crashing down on me
If it hadn't been for the pouring rain, I'm sure she would have seen

Tears in the rain, hiding the pain
Maybe she'd come back if she could see me cry
She thinks I'm so strong, oh, but she's so wrong
She just couldn't see these tears in the rain

Now I'll regret that moment 'cos I didn't let her know
How much I still loved her, I was hoping it would show
But the raindrops and the teardrops ran together on my face
Now she'll never ever know, no one can take her place

Tears in the rain, hiding the pain
Maybe she'd come back if she could see me cry
She thinks I'm so strong, oh, but she's so wrong
She just couldn't see these tears in the rain

She thinks I'm so strong, oh, but she's so wrong
She just couldn't see these tears in the rain
