Someone told me long ago,

There's a calm before the storm,

I know, it's been coming for some time,

When it's over, so they say,

It'll rain a sunny day,

I know, shining down like water.

I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain?

I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain,

Coming down on a sunny day?

Yesterday and days before,

Sun is cold and rain is hard,

I know, been that way for all my time,

'Til forever on it goes,

Through the circle, fast and slow,

I know, it can't stop, I wonder.

I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain?

I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain,

Coming down on a sunny day?

But after every storm,

There's a rainbow in the sky,

I know, it's been there all this time,

Through the darkness, we will grow,

Find the strength to let it go,

I know, we'll shine, I wonder.

I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain?

I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain,

Coming down on a sunny day?

Yeah,

I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain?

I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain,

Coming down on a sunny day?
