I Wish It Would Rain

I Wish It Would Rain - O.B. McClinton

Written by：Barrett Strong/Norman Whitfield/Rodger Penzabene

Oh how I wish that it would rain

Oh how I wish that it would rain

Sunshine blue skies please go away

My baby done found another loges gone away

With her went my future my life is filled with gloom

Day after day I stay locked up in my room

I know to you it might sound strange

But I wish it would rain

Oh how I wish that it would rain

'Cause so badly Lord I wanna go outside

But everyone knows that a man ain't supposed to cry

But listen I got to cry 'cause crying

Eases my pain oh Lord

Even this hurt I feel inside

Words could never explain so I wish it would rain

Oh how I wish that it would rain

Oh no let it rain

Oh how I wish that it would rain

Day in day out my tear stained face

Pressed against the window pane

My eyes search the skies desperately for rain

'Cause rain drops will hide my teardrops and no one will ever know

That I'm crying

Crying

When I go outside

To the world outside my tears I refuse to explain

So I wish it would rain

Oh how I wish that it would rain

Ooh please let it rain

Let it rain let it rain

Let it rain let it rain

Let it rain rain rain Lord

Let it rain
