Rain Is Falling

Electric Light Orchestra

Early in the morning,

The sun was up and the sky was very blue,

Without a warning,

As I looked out,my thoughts returned to you

A noise in the city made the children run,

And hide themselves away,

And thunder boomed and lightning filled the sky.



Looking from this window,

A thousand rivers running past my door

Standing on an island,looking for someone

Upon the shore,

I can see it very clearly nothing's really changed,

Then lightning strikes across an empty sky,



Chorus



Ooh-the rain is falling,

Ooh-the rain is falling,

Ooh-the rain is falling,

Will it wash away the lonely tears,



With their brand new time transporter,

They'll think maybe I fought to get away,

But with all their great inventions,

And all their good intentions here I stay,

Down on the corner where the sun had shone,

The people gathered 'round,

Then scattered as the raindrops hit the ground,



Chorus
