Come Rain Or Come Shine
King BB & Clapton Eric Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm gonna love you like nobody's loved you,
Come rain or come shine.
High as a mountain and deep as a river,
Come rain or come shine.

Well I guess when you met me
That it was just one of those things,
But don't you ever bet me,
'Cause I'm gonna be true if you let me.

You're gonna love me like nobody's loved me,
Come rain or come shine.
Happy together, unhappy together,
Won't that be fine?

Day may be cloudy or sunny,
We're either in or we're out of the money.
I'm with you always.
I'm with you rain or shine.

You're gonna love me like nobody's loved me,
Come rain or come shine.
Happy together, unhappy together,
Won't that be fine?

Day may be cloudy or sunny,
We're either in or we're out of the money.
I'm with you always.
I'm with you rain or shine.





I'm with you always.
I'm with you rain or shine.

Didnt really get Mr. Clapton before I heard this song. I go for voices first. So, this did it for me. I can really hear him on this. Could be because I am half deaf😊 He shines in this even with the legend BB beside him. I dont know anything about guitars but I love them❤ Just listened to Ray Charles version, they really increased the value of this song. Like all the greats!
Thank You Guys for this track x
