Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was raised the Northern way
And my father had a Northern name
I did my crying out in the pourin' rain
And the season turned into another one
Found a heart bright like the mourning sun
He touched my lips (So softly) with his fingertips
[Verse 2]
But I kept the rain from falling down on me
All the time, all the time
Oh, I kept the rain from falling down on me
All the time, all the time
[Verse 3]
And some things in life won't ever change (Ooh, oh, oh)
There's a smell of a rusty chain (Ooh, ah, ah)
And of love disappearing like an airplane, oh, oh
[Verse 4]
I kept the rain from falling down on me
All the time, all the time
Ooh, I've kept the rain from falling down on me
All the time, all the time, all of the time
[Verse 5]
I've kept the rain from falling down on me
All the time, all the time (All of the time)
Oh, I kept the rain from falling down on me
All the time, all the time (All of the time)
Oh, I kept the rain from falling down on me
All the time, all the time
Ooh, I kept the rain from falling down on me, falling down on me
All the time, all the time, all of the time, all of the time
[Verse 6]
Ooh, I've kept the rain from falling down on me, falling, falling down
Ooh, ah, ooh, ah, ah, ah
I've kept the rain, falling down on (Oh, oh, oh, ah, ah)
(Ooh, ooh, ah)
