Lyrics

[Verse 1]

You know I never meant to see you again

But I only passed by as a friend

Yeah

All this time I stayed out of sight

I started wonderin' why

[Chorus]

Now I

Ooh, now I wish it would rain down

Down on me

Ooh, yes, I wish it would rain

Rain down on me now

Ooh, yes, I wish it would rain down

Down on me

Ooh, yes, I wish it would rain on me

[Verse 2]

You said you didn't need me in your life

Oh, I guess you were right

Yeah

Ooh, I never meant to cause you no pain

But it looks like I did it again

Yeah

[Chorus]

Now I

Now I know I wish it would rain down

Down on me

Ooh, yes, I wish it would rain

Rain down on me now

Ooh, girl, I wish it would rain down

Down on me

Ooh, yes, I wish it would rain on me

[Bridge]

Though your hurt is gone

Mine's hangin' on inside

And I know it's eating me through, it's eating me through every night and day

I'm just waitin' on your sign

'Cause I know, I know I never meant to cause you no pain

And I realize I let you down, oh, yeah

But I know in my heart of hearts

I know I'm never gonna hold you again, no no

[Chorus]

Now I

Now I know I wish it would rain down

Down on me

Ooh, you know I wish it would rain

Rain down on me now

Ooh, yes, I wish it would rain down

Down on me

Yes, you know I wish it would rain down, rain down over me

[Outro]

Just rain down over me

Just let it rain down, let it rain down

Let it rain down, oh, yeah

Let it rain down

Rain down over me

Just let it rain down

Just let it rain down

Let it rain down

Just let it rain
