(norman whitfield, barret strong, r. penzabene)
How you doin' annaheim ? i don't know what else to call ya'. if i knew all your names, i'd call ya' your bloody names.
Here's one that we did when we was here - were many of you here last night ?
Alright, well i changed me shirt anyway - no i haven't - changed me trousers.
Sunshine, blue skies, please go away,
My love has found another, gone away
Withered up my future, my life is filled with gloom,
Day after day i stay locked up in my room.
I know to you it might sound strange
But i wish it would rain.
Curse so badly, i don’t want to go outside,
Everyone knows that a man ain’t supposed to cry.
Listen, i’ve got to cry, 'cause crying sheds the pain.
To the world outside my tears i refuse to explain
I wish it would rain
Let it rain
Looking down at my tear stained face pressed against the window pane,
But i search the sky desperately for rain,
'cause raindrops will hide my teardrops, no one will ever know
When i’m crying, crying when i go outside.
To the world outside my tears i refuse to explain
I wish it would rain
Let it rain
Like that number ?
