Someone told me long ago there's a calm before the storm,
i know; it's been comin' for some time.
when it's over, so they say, it'll rain a sunny day,
i know; shinin' down like water.
i want to know, have you ever seen the rain?
i want to know, have you ever seen the rain
comin' down on a sunny day?
Yesterday, and days before, sun is cold and rain is hard,
i know; been that way for all my time.
'til forever, on it goes through the circle, fast and slow,
i know; it can't stop, i wonder.
