I had to come and see for myself
I heard you weep, I felt disdain
They said you're lost - all is insane
But what could a little raindrop change?
Uhuhuhuhuhuhuh
Uhuhuhuhuhuhuh
You can't hold back the rain
Every teardrop eases pain
You can't hold back the rain
So hold your head up high
And let these waters wash the hurt from your eyes
As stars kept whispering your name
I regained my trust in man
There is hope
Good things arise
I keep dreaming of open skies
Oh eheheheheheh
Oh eheheheheheh
Oh eheheheheheh
Oh eheheheheheh
Oh eheheheheheh
Oh eheheheheheh
Oh eheheheheheh
Oh
You can't hold back the rain
Every teardrop eases pain
You can't hold back the rain
So hold your head up high
Let these waters wash the hurt away
They wash away these tears
From the clouds, falling down
Through the winds onto the ground
Seeping through to the source
A rising stream a gentle force
The river flows wild and free
Down it goes into the sea
Diving deep the oceans' heart
Going up back to the start back to the start
I see raindrops in the sky
Little angels in disguise
Tumbling down like butterflies
Raindrops in the sky
They wash away all the harm
Falling back into your arms into your arms
Like butterflies tumbling down like butterflies
There has got to be a way to chase that ache away
You can't hold back the rain
Every teardrop eases pain
You can't hold back the rain
Every teardrop eases pain
Oh eheheheheheh
Oh eheheheheheh
Oh eheheheheheh
Oh eheheheheheh
Oh eheheheheheh
Oh eheheheheheh
Oh eheheheheheh
Oh ehehehehehe
(Oh)
