Don't try to tell me it's all right,
When she's not here with me tonight,
Oh, I can hear the rain,
And leaving makes the rain come down.
I know she's gone away before,
But if she was coming back any more,
I wouldn't hear the rain,
Oh, leaving makes the rain come down.
Every lonely raindrop seems to say,
I've lost her love somehow.
Oh I keep hearing raindrops telling me
She's gone for ever now.
Yeah, leaving makes the rain come down,
Leaving makes the rain come down.
Don't try to tell me what to do,
It's not your heart she broke in two,
And you don't hear the rain,
Oh, leaving makes the rain come down.
I can't make the rain stop,
Every day it keeps on coming down.
I've been hearing raindrops
Ever since my baby ain't around.
Yeah, leaving makes the rain come down,
Leaving makes the rain come down.
