Someone told me long ago

There’s a calm before the storm

I know, it’s been comin’ for some time

When it’s over, so they say

It’ll rain a sunny day

I know, shinin’ down like water

I want to know, have you ever seen the rain?

I want to know, have you ever seen the rain?

Comin’ down on a sunny day

Yesterday, and days before

Sun is cold and rain is hard

I know, been that way for all my time

‘Til forever, on it goes

Through the circle, fast and slow

I know, it can’t stop, I wonder

I want to know, have you ever seen the rain?

I want to know, have you ever seen the rain?

Comin’ down on a sunny day

I want to know, have you ever seen the rain?

I want to know, have you ever seen the rain?

Comin’ down on a sunny day
