Dressed in a white shirt with my hair combed straight Here in my black shoes and me without a date Me without hindsight, me without When will change come, Just like Spring Rain Falling down like sheets (Falling down like sheets) Coming down like love (Coming down like love) Falling at my feet (Falling just like) Spring Rain Standing on the lawn with cousins and child brides Caught for the camera on their best sides Being caught forewarned their best sides When will change come Just like Spring Rain Driving my first car My elbows in the breeze With all these people that I Never, never need These people are excited by their cars I want surprises just like Spring Rain Falling just like sheets (Falling just like sheets) Coming down so hard (Coming down so hard) Falling at my feet (Falling just like) Spring Rain Coming down like love (Coming down like love) Falling here so smooth (Falling here so smooth) Falling in that groove (Falling just like) Spring Rain Falling down like love (Falling, falling) Coming down so hard (Falling down) You hear it fall falling down Spring Rain Falling just like love (Falling, falling) Falling down so hard (Falling down) You hear it fall falling down Spring Rain
