Changes, visible changes Sky looking so forlorn It looks like the world's been born On one more rainy day Trying to see the sunlight My heart's crying out loud I try to see through the clouds On one more rainy day One more rainy day Once again my mind is gray This is what a rainy day can do One more rainy day One more rainy day Sun starts shining on through New day a day with you It's strange what sun can do On one more rainy day One more rainy day Once again my mind is gray This is what a rainy day can do One more rainy day One more rainy day
