Lyrics
[Verse 1]
A black bat moans when he's burnin' with a fever
A stray dog howls when he's lonely in the night
A woman go crazy with the thoughts of retribution
But a man starts weepin' when he's sick and tired of life
[Verse 2]
I keep on dreamin' dreams of tomorrow
Feel I'm wastin' my time lightin' candles in the wind
Always takin' my chances on the promise of the future
But a heart full of sorrow paints a lonely tapestry
[Verse 3]
The sun is shinin'
But it's rainin' in my heart
[Verse 4]
No one understands the heartache, no one feels the pain
'Cause no one ever sees the tears
When you're crying in the rain
When you're crying in the rain
Crying in the rain
[Verse 5]
I can never deny all the sweet things I've tasted
Though I've been mistreated, I keep comin' back for more
I know where I'm goin', there's no hope for absolution
I can't seem to separate the good times from the bad
[Verse 6]
The sun is shinin'
But it's rainin' in my heart
[Verse 7]
No one understands the heartache, no one feels the pain
'Cause no one ever sees the tears
When you're crying in the rain
When you're crying in the rain
When you're crying in the rain
When you're crying in the rain
[Verse 8]
The sun is shinin'
But it's rainin' in my heart
[Verse 9]
No one understands the heartache, no one feels the pain
'Cause no one ever sees the tears
When you're crying in the rain
When you're crying in the rain
When you're crying in the rain
When you're crying in the rain
[Verse 10]
When you're crying in the rain
Crying in the rain
