A black cat moans when he's burning with the fever

A stray dog howls when he's lonely in the night

A woman goes crazy with the thoughts of retribution

Then a man starts weeping when he's sick and tired of life



I keep on dreaming dreams of tomorrow

Feel I'm wasting my time lighting candles in the wind

Always taking my chances on the promise of the future

That a heart full of sorrow paints a lonely tapestry



The sun is shining

Ooh, but it's raining in my heart



No one understands the heartache

No one feels the pain

No one ever sees the tears

When you're crying in the rain

When you're crying in the rain

Crying in the rain



I can never deny all the sweet things I've tasted

Though I've been mistreated, I keep coming back for more, more, more

I know where I'm going, there's no hope of absolution

And can't seem to separate the good times from the bad



The sun is shining

Ooh baby, it's still raining in my heart

In my heart



No one understands the heartache

No one feels the pain

No one ever sees the tears

When you're crying in the rain

When you're crying in the rain

When you're crying in the rain

When you're crying in the rain, no, no, no



The sun is shining

But it's raining in my heart



No one understands the heartache

No one feels the pain

No one ever sees the tears

When you're crying in the rain

When you're crying in the rain

When you're crying in the rain

When you're crying in the rain



Crying in the rain

Crying in the rain
