It doesn't hit me in that Eastside dive bar, no It doesn't hit me when a stranger says your name It doesn't hit me when somebody plays That old heartbreaker song we used to sing Doesn't hit me when I wake up in the morning I only miss you when it rains When the sky is grey and white When the day feels like the night And I guess it makes sense 'Cause you and me we're always bound To be one long stretch of clouds Waitin' for the rainbow that never came I only miss you, I only miss you when it rains This the kind of thing that makes young lovers kiss, yeah And little kids run outside and make a mess The kind of thing that makes flowers grow It'll wash away a weary soul But as long as it falls, I know I'll still see your face I only miss you when it rains When the sky is grey and white When the day feels like the night And I guess it makes sense 'Cause you and me we're always bound To be one long stretch of clouds Waitin' for the rainbow that never came I only miss you, I only miss you when it rains ♪ It's not the sunshine, no It's not the blue sky, no It's that rain that starts comin' down, comin' down Comin' down I only miss you when it rains When the sky is grey and white When the day feels like the night And I guess it makes sense 'Cause you and me we're always bound To be one long stretch of clouds Waitin' for the rainbow that never came I only miss you, I only miss you I only miss you when it rains (It's not the sunshine) I only miss you when it rains (It's not the blue sky) hmm-mm (It's not the sunshine) hmm-mm (It's not the blue sky) I only miss you, I only miss you when it rains
