Come Rain or Come Shine
Peggy Lee 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, deep as a river
Come rain or come shine

I guess when you met me
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
We'll be happy together, unhappy together
Now won't that be fine

The days may be cloudy or sunny
We're in or out of the money





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

This music sends me to a place I used know, and even better it knew me, and loved me, and wanted me to hurry back. Of course bring some money too.
