If I Could Be The Rain
F C
Sometimes I wonder how the simple rain can weep,
D7 G7
Or why the winds a lonely child that cries itself to sleep
C F
Ive envied all the sunlight, the amber of its smile,
C G7 FC
And wished it could be borrowed for a while
If I could be the rain, I'd wash down to the sea;
If I could be the wind, there'd be no more of me;
If I could be the sunlight, and all the days were mine,
I would find some special place to shine.
But all the rain I'll ever be is locked up in my eyes,
When I hear the wind it only whispers sad goodbyes.
If I could hide the way I feel I'd never sing again;
Sometimes I wish that I could be the rain.
If I could be the rain, I'd wash down to the sea;
If I could be the wind, there'd be no more of me;
If I could hide the way I feel I'd never sing again;
Sometimes I wish that I could be the rain.
