Here in my mind the sky looks the same
On every day you loved me 
When we started home it started to rain 
You put your coat around me 
We stood there in the road 
You held me so close 
But did you ever let go 

Down came the rain 
Lightning and thunder 
We tried in vain 
To hold on to each other 
Winds of change blew you away from me 
Right here right now, I feel it on my skin 
The bitter sting of what we could’ve been 
Just when our love was like a burning flame 
Down came the rain 

In through the window I see her with you 
I’m soaked to the skin, you’re warm and dry 
I guess the storm is over for you 
But look at the tears here in my eyes 
I just stood there like a ghost 
As you held her so close 
And as I let you go 

Down came the rain 
Lightning and thunder 
We tried in vain 
To hold on to each other 
Winds of change blew you away from me 
Love like this changes who you are 
Every kiss you gave me is a scar 
Just when our love was like a burning flame 
Down came the rain 

All I need is to move on fast 
But all I want is to have you back 
And it just keeps falling… 

Down came the rain 
Lightning and thunder 
We tried in vain 
To hold on to each other 
Winds of change blew you away from me 
Right here right now, I feel it on my skin 
The bitter sting of what we could’ve been 
Just when our love was like a burning flame 
Down came the rain 

Down came the rain
