lyrics

There’s a little black cloud
In the place where I’d be free
And it’s taken down my number
As far as I can see
I say “I’ve got friends and
I’ve got money,
Won’t you leave me be?”
It says “I ain’t chasing you none, honey,
You are chasing me”

I can’t stop the rain, can’t stop the rain, can’t stop the rain

There’s this girl and she hears voices
At the borderlands of sleep
And they shout about the covenants
That she has failed to keep
She says “I’m so tired,
This stuff ain’t funny
Please don’t make me creep”
But no one’s talking here none, honey
What you sow you reap

She says…
I can’t stop the rain, can’t stop the rain, can’t stop the rain

And it keeps on coming down,
Yeah it keeps on coming down,
Yeah it keeps on coming down,
Coming down, coming down
And it keeps on coming down,
Yeah it keeps on coming down,
Yeah it keeps on coming down,
Coming down, coming down

There’s a guy lives in the city
And he dies each every day
‘cos he cannot shake the demons that are
Standing in his way
He says “Someone help me
To the crossroads
Keep these mutts at bay”
But no one’s listening none, honey
Let your nightmares play

He says…
I can’t stop the rain, can’t stop the rain, can’t stop the rain

And it keeps on coming down,
Yeah it keeps on coming down,
Yeah it keeps on coming down,
Coming down, coming down

I can’t stop the rain, can’t stop the rain, can’t stop the rain
