This is New York, yo It's getting dark Night falls on the city, finds me all alone Makes me wonder should I just go on home And I walk up the stairs to see if you're still there Would you mind if I found you alone? Then a cold wind came callin' Strange how it knew [Incomprehensible] See the night would fade but the pain's gonna stay Makes me wonder have you ever made love to me I can't stop the rain, here it comes again Lightnin' strikes across the sky Oh oh, I can't stop the rain, here it comes again Lightnin' only blinds my eyes Ain't it sad when the only love I ever had Just slips away right through my fingers Ain't it a shame when I think of your name The only memory I have is pain I can't stop the rain, here it comes again Lightnin' strikes across the sky Oh oh, I can't stop the rain, here it comes again It takes a witch to curse that goddamn sky I can't stop the rain, here it comes again Lightnin' strikes across the sky Oh oh, I can't stop the rain, here it comes again 'Cause lightnin' only blinds my eyes Oh, I can't stop the rain, here it comes again 'Cause lightnin' only blinds my eyes I can't stop it
