Rain, rain, go away
I couldn't take you one more day
There's broken glass here on the floor
And I can't take this anymore
Stay, stay don't leave now
I'll do anything but let you go
My hands are cold, my eyes can't see
You can't do this, not to me
Rain, rain, go away
I can't stand this one more day
I'll close my eyes, I'll shut my brain
I can't stand this fucking rain
I can't stand the rain
