Have You Ever Seen The Rain Lyrics

Teenage Fanclub

Someone told me long ago,
There's a calm before the storm,
I know and it's been coming for some time.

When it's over so they say
It'll rain a sunny day,
I know, shining down like water.

I want to know, have you ever seen the rain?
I want to know, have you ever seen the rain?
Coming down on a sunny day

Yesterday and days before,
Sun is cold and rain is hot
I know, been that way for all my time.

Forever on it goes
Through the circle fast and slow,
I know, and I can't stop. I wonder.

I want to know, have you ever seen the rain?
I want to know, have you ever seen the rain?
Coming down on a sunny day

I want to know, have you ever seen the rain?
I want to know, have you ever seen the rain?
Coming down on a sunny day
