When It Rains
Darryl Williams Lyrics

And when it rains,
When there are difficult times,

On this side of town it touches, everything.
The difficulties affect everyone, regardless of where they live.

Just say it again and mean it,
Repeat what you said earlier and actually mean it.

We don't miss a thing.
We notice everything that goes on around us.

You made yourself a bed,
You put yourself in a bad situation.

At the bottom of the blackest hole.
In the darkest place imaginable.

And convinced yourself,
You have convinced yourself,

That it's not the reason you don't see the sun anymore.
That the reason you don't see the light anymore is not your fault.

And oh, oh, how could you do it?
How could you do something like this?

Oh I, I never saw it coming.
I never anticipated it.

Oh, oh, I need the ending.
I need closure.

So why can't you stay,
Why can't you stick around,

Just long enough to explain?
Long enough to clarify things?

Will you always find an escape?
Will you always find a way out?

Just running away,
Just leaving,

From all of the ones who love you.
From everyone who cares about you.

From everything.
From everything in your life.

And you'll sleep 'til May,
You'll sleep for a long time,

And you'll say that you don't want to see the sun anymore.
And you'll decide that you don't want to see the light again.

Take your time.
Don't rush this process.

Take my time.
Take as much of my time as you need.

Take these chances to turn it around (take your time).
Take advantage of these opportunities to make things better (but don't rush).

Take these chances, we'll make it somehow.
If we work together, we can find a way to fix this.

Just turn it around.
Let's make things right.
