Philip Bailey Waiting For The Rain
(DoDo do do do do do do doo,
do do do do do do dooo,
dahn dahn do, do, do do do do do, dohn donn)
It was a sunny day in late July, when you said goodbye,
like your heart was frozen. No trace of tears,
your eyes were dry, been wonderin' why your heart was
cold and ohh ohh,
standing hear waiting for the clouds to cover your
heart.
And though your skies are blue, still my heart is
true...
waitng for a change in the weather with you.
I've been waiting for the rain to come down (come
down),
I've been waiting for your heart to come around.
(I'm still waiting) Underneath the cloudless sky,
tell me what should I try, in vain,
girl I'm out here waiting for the rain.
Whoa, whoa... (Sax combo)
Dead of midnight, alone in the dark,
with a broken heart, and the memories of you.
How could you leave me in this misery?
Why can't you see? We should be together, ohhhooo...
Standing here waiting for the clouds to cover your
heart.
And though your skies are blue, still my heart is
true...
waitng for a change in the weather with you.
I've been waiting for the rain to come down (rain to
come down),
I've been waiting for your heart to come down
(whoaoooo).
Underneath the cloudless sky, tell me what should I
try..
No more pretending if love's really ending.
All along it was meant to be... and I thought you
believed...
it was you for me. Too much wasted time on (time
wasted)
giving me a sign (a sign). If what we had was true,
why am I so confused? Tell me the truth,
are you missing me, toooo?
I've been waiting for the rain to come down(haaohhh),
I've been waiting for your heart to come around
(already, yeahyeahyeah...), undeneath the cloudless
sky,
tell me what should I try, in vain.
Girl I'm out here waiting for the rain. (Sax
strengthens)
Waiting for the rain. Girl I'm waiting for the rain, la
da da da da.
(Fade) I've been waiting for the rain to come down, (so
long waiting)
I've been waiting for your heart to come around,
underneath the cloudless sky, tell me what should I
try.
Dah dah.
