When the rain comes down again

When the clouds come out again

Please say you're lonely

Please say you'll let me keep you dry.

You weigh so much more when you are smiling

And you're a feather when you frown

I can't help you stand when you're not falling

And I can't pick you up when you're not down.

When the rain comes down again

When the clouds come out again

Please say you're lonely

Please say you'll let me keep you dry.

You said colors all look brighter in the sunlight

But I see so much better in the dark

You floated off to find your friends out on the fire escape

And I know I can't follow you that far

I can't follow you.

Maybe love is a flame you say

That flickers and fades away

Nobody can make it rain

But I'm gonna wait

And if your love is a flame it's strange

To wish for the clouds and the pouring rain

When you're happy you just don't need me around.

When the rain comes down again

When the clouds come out again

Please say you're lonely

Please say you'll let me keep you dry.
