All I'm gonna do is watch the rain today Bubble down the hill Maybe it'll tell me something I don't know Lord knows nothing else will And I can't complain, no one's died And all the pain is inside As I watch the rain fall down from the sky How many afternoons have I let get away Watchin the rain come down Somewhere downstream some farmer's watchin his Precious crops all drown And it's pourin down like last night's beer Drippin through the coils of my inner ear As I watch the rain fall down and disappear I don't gotta do anything -- at all I don't gotta do anything -- it just falls All I'm gonna do is watch the rain today Fall down from the sky Every drop of rain is like a part of me Watch my insides cry Soon enough it all washes down the drain Hear the thunder roar like a far-off train All I'm gonna do is sit and watch the rain today
