It Started To Rain Lyrics

Sally Jaye, how did it end up this way
With our boxes packed and not a word to say
The children played as your car pulled away
I didn't realize till then it was really goodbye

With your wheels on the gravel
I felt my heartstrings unravel
As it started to rain
It started to rain
It started to rain
40 days
It started to rain

The neighbors came and they bought what remained
of the life we built with love and laughter

My heart started sinkin'
cause I couldn't stop thinkin'
Their fate would be the same
And it started to rain
It started to rain
40 days
It started to rain
It started to rain
It started to rain

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Recession song? Poor economy, backrupt, house has been seized, wife has left him. Can't help but think the same will happen to the neighbours too. It's too sad, I can't listen to it anymore!
