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 wanna know
Have you ever seen the rain?
I wanna know
Have you ever seen the rain
Comin' down 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, up on it goes
Through the circle, fast and slow
I know it can't stop, I wonder

I wanna know
Have you ever seen the rain?
I wanna know
Have you ever seen the rain
Comin' down a sunny day?

Yeah

I wanna know
Have you ever seen the rain?
I wanna know
Have you ever seen the rain
Comin' down a sunny day?

    To me, the key lines are these:

    When it's over so they say It'll rain a sunny day I know, shinin' down like water

    and

    I wanna know Have you ever seen the rain Comin' down a sunny day?

    So, "it" will NEVER be over, because it NEVER rains on a sunny day? Have YOU ever seen it rain on a sunny day?
