To help us get through the monsoon here in the UK, how many song titles has the word rain in it ... for example



1. I can't stand the rain - Tina Turner.

Purple Rain

I never meant to cause you any sorrow

I never meant to cause you any pain

I only wanted to one time see you laughing

I only wanted to see you laughing in the purple rain

Purple rain purple rain

Travis - "Why Does It Always Rain On Me?"

I cant sleep tonight

Everybody saying everythings alright

Still I cant close my eyes

Im seeing a tunnel at the end of all these lights

Sunny days

Where have you gone?

I get the strangest feeling you belong

Why does it always rain on me?

Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?

Why does it always rain on me?

Even when the sun is shining

I cant avoid the lightning

I cant stand myself

here are 2 very good ones ..



Milli Vanilli - Blame It On The Rain lyrics



You said you didn't need her

You told her good-bye (good-bye)

You sacrificed a good love

To satisfy your pride

Now you wished

That you should have her (have her)

And you feel like such a fool

You let her walk away

Now it just don't feel the same

Gotta blame it on something

Gotta blame it on something



Blame it on the rain (rain)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Peter Gabriel: Red Rain



Red rain is coming down

Red rain

Red rain is pouring down

Pouring down all over me



I am standing up at the waters edge in my dream

I cannot make a single sound as you scream

It cant be that cold, the ground is still warm to touch

This place is so quiet, sensing that storm



Red rain is coming down

Red rain

Red rain is pouring down

Pouring down all over me



Well Ive seen them buried in a sheltered place in this town

They tell you that this rain can sting, and look down

There is no blood around see no sign of pain

Hay ay ay no pain

Seeing no red at all, see no rain

Insey Winsey Spider climbed up the spout.

out came the Rain and washed poor Insey out.

Out came the sun and dried up all the rain,

so Insey Winsey Spider climbed up the spout again.
