He'd had some time
He'd been doing fine
He couldn't remember when she'd last crossed his mind

But a storm cloud comes stealin'
With that old mournful feelin'
Just like the black night she left him behind


When it rains
When it rains

It pours down memories and thunders her name
And he drowns in the flood of the same old pain
When it rains

When it rains

He starts to cry

He gets to wondering why
And he's sure he can't take one more long lonely night
But his mind keeps on achin'

And his heart keeps on breakin'
And he stands shakin' his fist at the sky


When it rains
When it rains
It pours down memories and thunders her name

And he drowns in the flood of the same old pain
When it rains
When it rains

When it rains
It pours down memories and thunders her name
And he drowns in the flood of the same old pain

When it rains
When it rains
