Stop the Rain - Average White Band

Just yesterday you slipped

Away from me

Without so much

As one word of good-bye

You packed the sunshine

In your big old suitcase

Now only the rain fills the sky

You were mine

But suddenly it’s changed

Wish that I… could find a way

To stop the rain

I thought that everything

Was going fine

But I was blind

Blind as a man could be

I took for granted

What you tried hard to give

And now the rain

Is all I can see

You were mine —

But that was yesterday

Wish that I… could find a way

To stop the rain

Now tell me please

Do you understand

What this feeling

Is all about

'Cos when you left me

You took my heart —

Squeezed the sunshine out

But in time

This heart of mine will heal

The Sun will shine

And I can find a way to stop the rain
