Can’t Stop the Rain

[Intro] Ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh [Verse 1] 27th of January Think he died a year ago today She's crying on my shoulder And begging me to make the hurting go away Pretty brown eyes, tears full of guilt A heart full of pain and fear I wanna tell her it's okay But we both know she's the reason he's not here [Chorus] I keep on crying But it doesn't seem to help at all (Seem to help at all) With every single teardrop, it's like another raindrop falls And I would (And I would) if I could (If I could) But the try would be in vain (The try would be in vain) Said no matter what I do, I can't stop the rain So I cry Ooh, I can't stop the rain (Stop the rain) Ooh, I can't stop the rain (Stop the rain) If I could, you know I would, but the try would be in vain So I cry Ooh, I can't stop the rain (Stop the rain) [Verse 2] Faded picture in a little gold locket And she never takes it off I know it's small, but it's heavy 'cause it's filled with guilt I know and she's why his life is lost I feel bad for her, but I'm having mixed emotions 'Cause he was a friend of mine Somewhere in the deepest darkest part of my mind I wish it was her that died that night, ooh [Chorus] I keep on crying But it doesn't seem to help at all (Seem to help at all) With every single teardrop, it's like another raindrop falls And I would (And I would) if I could (If I could) But the try would be in vain (The try would be in vain) Said no matter what I do, I can't stop the rain So I cry Ooh, I can't stop the rain (Stop the rain) Ooh, I can't stop the rain (Stop the rain) If I could, you know I would, but the try would be in vain So I cry Ooh, I can't stop the rain (Stop the rain) [Bridge] One rainy Saturday night, a happy anniversary Celebrating love, champagne all around They had a little too much to drink They got in the car, and he could barely stand up So she figured that she'd drive Staring at him, I suppose, a sudden jerk of the wheel And the car flipped about three times, ooh [Chorus] I keep on crying But it doesn't seem to help at all (Seem to help at all) With every single teardrop, it's like another raindrop falls And I would (And I would) if I could (If I could) But the try would be in vain (The try would be in vain) Said no matter what I do, I can't stop the rain So I cry Ooh, I can't stop the rain (Stop the rain) Ooh, I can't stop the rain (Stop the rain) If I could, you know I would, but the try would be in vain Ooh, I can't stop the rain (Stop the rain)
