Someone told me long ago
There's a calm before the storm
And I know, it's been coming for some time
And when it's over, so they say
It'll rain on a sunny day
And I know, shining down like water

I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain?
I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain
Coming down on me?

Yesterday and days before
Came a calm before the storm
And I know, it's been that way for all my time
And forever, on it goes
Through the circle, fast and slow
And I know, shining down like water

I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain?
I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain
Coming down on me?

I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain?
I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain
Coming down on you?
Coming down like water?
Coming down on me?
