Verse 1:
/
You're cryin' now just like I used to cry before (rain, rain, rain)
/
Turn off the tears, girl, I don't care anymore
You can save all your lies 'cause I've heard them all before
Chorus:
Tell it to the rain and the stars that shine above
/
That it's me you're thinking of
And I'm your love [3: Forget him, love]

Verse 2:
I gave you love, girl, and got nothing in return (rain, rain, rain)
How does it feel to feel what I had to learn
Baby don't say you're sorry 'cause I'm just not concerned
