Rain is liquid water in the form of droplets that have condensed from atmospheric water vapor and then precipitated—that is, become heavy enough to fall under gravity. Rain is a major component of the water cycle and is responsible for depositing most of the fresh water on the planet. It provides suitable conditions for many types of ecosystem, as well as water for hydroelectric power plants and crop irrigation.
The major cause of rain production is moisture moving along three-dimensional zones of temperature and moisture contrasts known as weather fronts. If enough moisture and upward motion is present, precipitation falls from convective clouds (those with strong upward vertical motion) such as cumulonimbus (thunder clouds) which can organize into narrow rainbands. In mountainous areas, heavy precipitation is possible where upslope flow is maximized within windward sides of the terrain at elevation which forces moist air to condense and fall out as rainfall along the sides of mountains. On the leeward side of mountains, desert climates can exist due to the dry air caused by downslope flow which causes heating and drying of the air mass. The movement of the monsoon trough, or intertropical convergence zone, brings rainy seasons to savannah climes.
Rainfall on rolling green
Wavy lines and peacock sheen
Rainfall on rolling green
Prettiest world I've ever seen
Faces and places in a highway land
Beads strung on a silver strand
Quick silver in a callused hand
Never a place for the Son of Man
Born under a rainbow sign
Flash of wave in space and time
Molten glass and hearts that shine
We were hiding from the rain and the thunder
I've been staring out for days as i wonder along here down
As I wonder a long day around
So here we are again we're outnumbered
The feeling is a weight that I'm under
Thought I heard her call my name in the summer
Is it ever gonna change?
In my slumber alone
I can hear myself walking through this earth
Can't believe they've started
talking so retarded
I don't know what i dont know
let me go
We were hiding from the rain and the thunder
I've been staring out for days as I wonder
Downtown is like a slot machine
shine neon signs and stoplights turn to green
sit down, the moon is in my hair
it shines upon the rainfall in the air
I see you everyday
I watch you as you talk away
I often think of things to say
but I just watch you as you walk away
Cross-town the street is like a stream
asphalt and people driving in a dream
slow down, the moon is in my eyes
it shines upon the rainfall by the roadside
The rainfall
the rain falls down on the ground
it's down on the ground
The rainfall
the rainfall's bringing me down
it's bringing me down
We were hiding from the rain and the thunder
I've been staring out for days
As I wonder a long day around
So here we are again we're outnumbered
The feeling is a wave that I'm under
But I heard it call my name in the summer
Is it ever gonna change in my slumber
I can hear myself walking through this world
Can't believe it's not
They're talking so retarded
I don't know
It might not show
Midnight is here, baby I hear you calling,
And I know you're there, (know you're there).
The moonlight I staking me to you,
I just want to be near you!
Did anyone feel what's inside of you?
You're amazing, so beautiful,
I'll never break your heart, girl!
You're my energy, for eternity,
You could be my lady!
[Chorus:]
She's like a rainfall!
Can you give it to me, baby?
She's falling from above,
Like I'm falling in love!
She's like a rainfall!
I wanna swim with you, baby!
Kiss me!
I could be your hero every night,
I'll be flowing by your side!
She's like a rainfall (rainfall, rainfall, rainfall)!
(She's like my rainfall!)
Now that I'm here,
With you in the jungle dreaming, (dreaming)
About things we could do.
(Things we could do!)
Tell me if you feel my loving!
I can hear your heart beating,
Get a little closer, cause I wanna hold on to you!
You're amazing, so beautiful,
I'll never break your heart, girl!
You're my energy, for eternity,
You could be my lady!
[Chorus: x3]
She's like a rainfall!
Can you give it to me, baby?
She's falling from above,
Like I'm falling in love!
She's like a rainfall!
I wanna swim with you, baby!
Kiss me!
I could be your hero every night,
I'll be flowing by your side!
She's like a rainfall (rainfall, rainfall, rainfall)!
Rain, rain , rain
A thousand tiny drops upon the pane
Marching in their millions toward the drain
And whose to say those drops are all the same?
Against the shutters, splash and down they go
Into the Gutters, or to rivers flow
Rain, rainy day
On rooftops or on treetops either way
The curbsides and the creek beds know the way
To turn these drops to streams that flow away
To fill the rivers, bound by banks and shores
Or to the sewer, down the gutter's course
Drawn by weeds in stagnant pools of mud
Or tossed in torrents, agents of the flood
To lay to rest in placid lake
Or raging for a dam to break
Time's racing, everything is moving so fast
For the people who were friends
Who were close in the past
Feelings inside [unverified] you
Wish they could know
It's so much harder to show
But it's alright
You know it's alright
It's just a rainfall
Takin' your loving in the palm of my hand
And taking my love
Giving all that I can
Days of the future
You lost things you had
Just ease yourself into bed
You know it's alright
Darling it's alright
You know it's alright, it's all
(Oh oh oh)
(Oh)
You can't stop the rain that falls
Feelings inside, so much harder to show
There's blood on the hands
Of each person I know
No one can know
How you're holding me tight
Or the things we're feeling tonight
You know it's alright
Darling it's alright
It's just a rainfall
You know it's alright
Darling it's alright
Behind a wall
There is a boy
I've tried to reach
For many years
Each time it rains
I see his face
I offer shelter
He walks away
May you have brighter tomorrows
The past you had was shrouded in deceit
May you be eternally beautiful
The way you are
The way you are
To me
I had the chance
To feel his pain
I didn't look
Deep inside
My desperate hope
Won't bring him back
It only kills
The love I have
I walked away
From the waters edge
Feeling numb
From the cold
Now when it rains
I can't see his face
I am weak
And I have failed
I'd like to know what's going on
In this world we're living on
So much poverty
All around me
This insanity
That surrounds me
It is the world, seems so far away
People's lives, changing everyday
Oh no... I can hear the rainfall
I'd like to know when you and I
Will stop walking and passing by
So much ignorance
That my eyes see
My experience
Cannot blind me
It is the world, seems so far from here
Seasons change, and the rain is near
Oh no... I can hear the rainfall
Oooh... Yehh....
I'd like to find a new reality
Something more than this fantasy
No more false dreams
No more mind games
I can't even see
Through this dark rain
It is the world, seems so far away
People lives, changing everyday
Downtown is like a slot machine
shine neon signs and stoplights turn to green
sit down, the moon is in my hair
it shines upon the rainfall in the air
I see you everyday
I watch you as you talk away
I often think of things to say
but I just watch you as you walk away
Cross-town the street is like a stream
asphalt and people driving in a dream
slow down, the moon is in my eyes
it shines upon the rainfall by the roadside
The rainfall
the rain falls down on the ground
it's down on the ground
The rainfall
the rainfall's bringing me down
