I hear it outside, Falling on the tin roof, People running from it trying to hide, Panicking, wishing everything they owned was waterproof
Oh yes! now I know, It's not themselves they worry for, It's money, the riches that their expensive possessions show, Worried, those might get ruined in this downpour
Have they forgotten i wonder, The joy that the monsoon rain use to bring, The goosebumps with every loud thunder, Awaiting next morning like the first day of spring
Oh how much I wish they could see the rain, The way I see it, full of freedom and love, A rhythm so soothing it heals all your pain, Makes me feel the paradise I can otherwise only dream of
Oh rain please don't go away, **** 'em if they hate you, I want you to stay, Don't stop singing, keep the beat up and make us sway, Tell us tales and keep us cool in this hot hell of a day.
