Can't Stop The Rain lyrics

Oooooh oooh ooh [x2]

27th of january, think he died a year ago today

She's crying on my shoulder and begging me to make the hurting go away

Pretty brown eyes, tears full of guilt, a heart full of pain and fear

I wanna tell her it's okay but we both know she's the reason he's not here.

I keep on crying, but it doesn't seem to help at all {seem to help at all}

With every single tear drop, it's like another raindrop falls

And I would {and I would}, if I could {if I could}... but the try would be in vain {the try would be in vain}

Said so matter what I do... I can't stop the rain.

So I cry

Oooooooh... I can't stop the rain {stop the rain} [x2]

If I could, you know I would... but the try would be in vain.

So I cry

Oooooooh... I can't stop the rain {stop the rain}

Faded picture in a little gold locket, and she never takes it off

I know it's small, but it's heavy 'cus it's filled with guilt

I know and she why his life is lost

I feel bad for her, but I'm having mixed emotions

'cus he was a friend of mine

Somewhere in the deepest darkest part of my mind

I wish it was her that died that night

{Ooooh}

I keep on crying, but it doesn't seem to help at all {seem to help at all}

With every single tear drop, it's like another raindrop falls {raindrop falls}

And I would {and I would}, if I could {if I could}... but the try would be in vain {the try would be in vain}

Said so matter what I do... I can't stop the rain

So I cry

Oooooooh... I can't stop the rain {stop the rain} [x2]

If I could, you know I would... but the try would be in vain.

So I cry

Oooooooh... I can't stop the rain {stop the rain}

One rainy saturday night, a happy anniversary

Celebrating long {?}, champagne all around

They had a little too much to drink

They got in the car, and he could barely stand up

So she figured that she'd drive.

Staring at him I suppose, a sudden jerk of the wheel,

And the car flipped about three times

{Oooooooh}

I keep on crying, but it doesn't seem to help at all.

With every single tear drop, it's like another raindrop falls {raindrop falls}.

And I would {and I would}, if I could {if I could}... but the try would be in vain.

Said so matter what I do {what I do}... I can't stop the rain.

So I cry

Oooooooh... I can't stop the rain {stop the rain} [x2]

If I could, you know I would... but the try would be in vain.

Oooooooh... I can't stop the rain {stop the rain}
