I'm waiting for the rain I'm waiting in vain How do they manage to resist the sun? How do they manage to resist its heat? I'm waiting for the rain I'm waiting for the rain again and again How can I talk now - my mouth is dry I've got no tears left tears to cry I'm waiting for the rain I'm waiting for the rain but everything's the same There are no clouds There is no rain This waiting business is an endless game I'm waiting for the rain One way or another
