The weather is frightening
The thunder and lightning
Seem to be having their way
But as far as I'm concerned, it's a lovely day 
The turn in the weather
Will keep us together
So I can honestly say
That as far as I'm concerned, it's a lovely day
And everything's okay

Isn't this a lovely day to be caught in the rain
You were going on your way now you've got to remain

Just as you were going leaving me all at sea
The clouds broke they broke and oh what a break for me

I can see the sun up high, though we're caught in a storm
I can see where you and I could be cozy and warm

Let the rain pitter patter
But it really doesn't matter 
If the skies are gray
Long as I can be with you, it's a lovely day
