The Outlet Company at that time had recently sold WNYS to a company called WNYS Acquisition Corp., which was a joint partnership of Coca Cola's New York bottling division and former Washington Post president Larry H. Israel. It then changed its call letters to WIXT. The station was acquired by The Ackerley Group in 1982, and after numerous ownerships to undergo, is now owned by Nexstar Broadcast Group. In 2005, under Clear Channel ownership, the station adopted its current call-sign, WSYR, previously used on NBC station WSTM from its 1950 sign-on until 1980.

Mmm yeah Au Au Au August yeahh ohh
Hearts been broken, Struggling just to find a brand new start
The darkness is closing in, making everyone of my decisions hard
You've been calling, telling me you'd always be there
But it just wouldn't have been fair, to you
And they said that after the storm it'd be bright
That the clouds would give way to the sun
And I know you've been waiting for me to come around
I just needed some time to figure it all out
I was lost, there was no way that I could be what you want
And no way that I could give you my all
My heart wasn't proper, but that didn't stop ya from waiting
Til after, after, after the rain
I had to re-pair, leave behind the pieces and re-build again
Ohh, and yeah I saw you there but there's no way that I could just pretend
That I was alright and okay
I wasn't all good and I had to delay
I needed the water to wash that away
And they said that after the storm it'd be bright
That the clouds would give way to the sun
And I know you've been waiting for me to come around
I just needed some time to figure it out
Cause I was so lost there was no way that I could be what you want
And no way that I could give you my all
My heart wasn't proper, but that didn't stop ya from waiting
Til after, after, after the rain
Let it wash away all my mistakes
Cause I got so many changes to make
See from hating to loving I got to make the adjustment
From the darkness into the rising sun yeah
I'm so sorry to keep you waiting
Almost drowned cause it wouldn't stop raining
Now that all that is gone, I'm ready to carry on
I was lost, there was no way that I could be what you want
And no way that I could give you my all
My heart wasn't proper, but that didn't stop ya from waiting
Til after, after, after the rain
After the rain
Ooh, said after the rain
