Come Rain Or Come Shine
Perry Como Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Come rain or come shine
High as a mountain, an' deep as a river
Come rain or come shine
I guess when you met me
It was just one o' those things
But don't you ever bet me
You're gonna love me like nobody's loved me
Come rain or come shine
Happy together, unhappy together
An' won't it be fine?
Days may be cloudy or sunny
We're in or we're out of the money
But 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
An' won't it be fine?)
Days may be cloudy or sunny
We're in or we're out of the money
But I'm with you always
I'm with you rain or shine!
(I'm gonna love you...rain...)
I'm gonna love you, like nobody's loved you...
