The rain falls, the rain falls down

The rain falls, the rain falls down

The rain falls, the rain falls down

The rain falls, the rain falls down on me



Well I gotta get up

but I can't get my head out of bed 'cause I went to bed late

So I drag myself out

and I wonder about how I let myself get in this state

And my coffee's run out

and the milk has gone off and the last piece of bread has gone stale

And I hear myself curse,

when the heating won't work 'cause I didn't pay the bill right away



The cold air is chilling me

and my head is killing me and I've only got myself to blame

I swear that in future I'll be more together

I see my computer, so I go to check my mail

It takes me a while,

but eventually I get on line, and when I finally do

I open up my messages

the second one's from you....... then



The rain falls, the rain falls down

The rain falls, the rain falls down

The rain falls, the rain falls down

The rain falls, the rain falls down on me



So you're breaking it off

and you didn't think it could be said to me straight to my face

And those rumours were true,

you've got somebody new, you've been taking her out in my place

And now you want rid of me

you've gotta be kidding me, don't you think I want rid of you?

And No you cannot be my friend

My friends they come through..........when



The rain falls, the rain falls down

The rain falls, the rain falls down

The rain falls, the rain falls down

The rain falls, the rain falls down on me



Well I click on your mail

and I drag it away to the trash and I gather my strength

I delete your address

all along with the rest of the messages you ever sent

'Cause I will find someone new

someone who'll love me too, cherish me to have and to hold

And you will be the one we'll see

Out there in the cold.........when



The rain falls, the rain falls down

The rain falls, the rain falls down

The rain falls, the rain falls down

The rain falls, the rain falls down .......... (ad lib) ..........on me
