I Wish It Would Rain Down - Billboard 1989 Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You know I never meant to see you again
But I only passed by as a friend, yeah
All this time I stayed out of sight
I started wonderin' why

[Chorus]
Now I... ooh, now I wish it would rain down... down on me
Ooh, yes I wish it would rain... rain down on me now
Ooh, yes, I wish it would rain down... down on me
Ooh, yes, I wish it would rain on me
[Verse 2]
You said you didn't need me in your life
Oh, I guess you were right, yeah
Ooh, I never meant to cause you no pain
But it looks like I did it again, yeah

[Chorus]
Now I... now I know I wish it would rain down... down on me
Ooh, yes, I wish it would rain... rain down on me now
Ooh, but I wish it would rain down... down on me
Ooh, yes, I wish it would rain on me

[Bridge]
Though your hurt is gone
Mine's hangin' on inside
And I know... it's eating me through... it's eating me through every night and day
I'm just waitin' on your sign
'Cause I know, I know... I never meant to cause you no pain
And I realize I let you down, oh, yeah
But I know in my heart of hearts
I know I'm never gonna hold you again, no no

[Chorus]
Now I... well, now I know I wish it would rain down... down on me
Oh, you know I wish it would rain... rain down on me now
Ooh, yes, I wish it would rain down... down on me
Yes, you know I wish it would rain down... rain down over me
[Outro]
Just rain down over me
Just let it rain down, let it rain down
Let it rain down, oh, yeah
Let it rain down, rain down over me
Just let it rain down, just let it rain down
Let it rain down
Just let it rain
