He'd been doing fine 
 He couldn't remember when she'd last crossed his mind 
 But a storm cloud comes stealin' 
 With that old mournful feelin' 
 Just like the black night she left him behind 
  
 When it rains 
 When it rains 
 It pours down memories and thunders her name 
 And he drowns in the flood of the same old pain 
 When it rains 
 When it rains 
  
 He starts to cry 
 He gets to wondering why 
 And he's sure he can't take one more long lonely night 
 But his mind keeps on achin' 
 And his heart keeps on breakin' 
 And he stands shakin' his fist at the sky 
  
 When it rains 
 When it rains 
 It pours down memories and thunders her name 
 And he drowns in the flood of the same old pain 
 When it rains 
 When it rains 
 When it rains 
 It pours down memories and thunders her name 
 And he drowns in the flood of the same old pain 
 When it rains 
 When it rains
