Rain Song

(album: The One - 2009)

Somebody told me that love is supposed to be all kinds of work
But you're making it easy, making it easy, making it easy on me
And somebody told me that all the beautiful girls end up with the jerks
Well must've got lucky, must've got lucky, must've got lucky this time

Somebody told me "You better look hard to find the right woman"
I had her in front of me, had her in front of me, had her in front of me now she's mine
Somebody told me that everyone settles and nobody's perfect
I think that you could be, think that you could be, you're certainly perfect for me

'Cause you can make the sun appear, but would you make it go away
'Cause I am fine just lying right here wishing it would rain all day

Never, never have I ever, made a wish for nasty weather
Until I started hanging with you girl, 'cause I've been working on the rooftop
And sometimes we don't stop working till the night is though

But I guess the job is pretty nice
I can look across the city lights and think of all the things I wanna sing to you
It's just another lonely night for workin up an appetite for making love
And hoping I get back to you soon

'Cause you can make the sun appear, but would you make it go away
'Cause I am fine just lying right here wishing it would rain all day

If the rain comes down on me outside (if we get rained on)
Maybe there's a chance that I could see you tonight
'Cause when the clouds roll in, it begins to pour (we can't get the job done)
We're packing up our things and we ain't workin no more
If the rain comes down on me outside (if we get rained on)
Maybe there's a chance that I could see you tonight
Yeah if the rain comes down on poor ol' me oh my (if we get rain)

Somebody told me, "It's like you got yourself a girl that you always wanna sing about
And you make it look easy, you make it look easy, you make it look easy for you"
I said "Nobody told me how I'd find a girl that I love everything about
She's everything that I want, everything that I want, everything that I wanted
And I never knew

'Cause you can make the sun appear, but would you make it go away
'Cause I am fine just lying right here wishing it would rain all day
