Waiting for the rain to fall And I know it's sure gonna fall hard on you 'Cause you tear me up and pick me down And I take my life with a wretched smile So I call your name, and I cry out loud 'Cause tomorrow's gone, so I hide my tears Waiting for the rain to fall And I know it's sure gonna fall hard on you All my life, you are there to hold me Like I hold my tears inside And you built it up 'til the world's exploding I can't hide my tears today
