Rain Lyrics

(Learn to adapt to the change or get washed away like tears in the rain)

The saddest thing I ever learnt is that relationships don't last
Or maybe I just feel that way because of my past
Bad memories get to me when I drink mad Hennesy
Feeling cold in a lonely room when I've got mad friends with me
I still see something that reminds me of her
I got so used to her that without her my mind is a blur
She find somebody quick, I won't find another for a while
She was about to be my wife and mother of my child

It's crazy how you can have your life arranged and the day you get engaged you notice she's acting strange
Like everything's changed, and suddenly you don't trust her just the same
And you find out some other man's been fucking out her brains
That's when your heart starts to feel the pain, so much that you can feel it in your veins
And you can't forget her name
That's when you literally go insane and you feel like you're so sad
You make it rain and then a song plays that says:

"Wise men say 'Looks like rain today'
Wise men say 'Looks like rain today'
Wise men say 'Looks like rain today'
Crack down the speakers
And trickle down the sleepy subway train"

[Talking] I don't understand this
This doesn't make any sense
It's like how can you say you love somebody

Yo, yo
I can never understand how a girl can say she loves a man
Then turn around and have sex with another man
I would have much rather been out for a hundred grand
Than to get interrupted and gettin her caught touching hands
With another man, oh God, another man
I can't even cry, my tears been dry
That's why it's thundering hard out tonght and it's dark and it's cold
'Cause the angels can hear my cry, and it's all in my soul
And all that I know I never felt this pain in my past
And it's ironic the first place we made love's same as the last
In the shower - that's why I put the rain with the name
And my power to trust somebody again is faded away
Other girls want me, I tell them it looks like rain today
I wallow in my sorrow, smoke and watch tapes that we made
And one of them tapes is the day I got played, I gave in, I caved,
The day I almost gave up everything that I gained

It's crazy how you can have your life arranged and the day you get engaged you notice she's acting strange
Like everything's changed, and suddenly it's on tape and you crumble
'Cause you notice on the tape she doesn't kiss you, she just fucks you
That's when your heart starts to feel the pain, so much that you can feel it in your veins
And you can't forget her name
That's when you literally go insane and you feel like you're so sad
You make it rain and then a song plays that says:

"Wise men say 'Looks like rain today'
Wise men say 'Looks like rain today'
Wise men say 'Looks like rain today'
Crack down the speakers
And trickle down the sleepy subway train"

i love the "wise men say.." part the best in this song.

this song is hard for me to hear and think about because i listened to it constantly the day my best friend died. but it's definitely an amazing song.
