I Hope It Rains (Radio Edit)

If apologies were bullets, you were always firing blanks Meteorology was foolish, prepared to sail, instead I sank And now cloud-seeding missiles couldn't brighten up my day And as you walk away, the bitterness inside me wants to say I hope it rains I hope it rains I hope it rains and the steady ground on which you stand turns to rough terrain I hope it rains and you find yourself staring into the eye of the hurricane And you'll remember I was your sunshine and you lost all you stood to gain I hope it rains Heed the warnings of the early morning weather reports Whether or not you know their context 'Cause when cumulonimbus clouds all gather, you will witness crowds All scatter like they know what's coming next Break the silence and sound the sirens, I'm glad you say I can't stay Because from what I've heard, a storm is on the way I hope it rains and the steady ground on which you stand turns to rough terrain I hope it rains and you find yourself staring into the eye of the hurricane And you'll remember I was your sunshine and you lost all you stood to gain I hope it rains Have you ever danced in a hailstorm? It's one of the biggest thrills I've ever known If conditions aren't right and it won't form I am without sin, I'll cast the first stone I hope it rains Get ready for floods and get ready for thunder And prepare yourself for temperatures in negative numbers 'Cause the winds are a-changing, this Indian summer Will turn into a monsoon, hope you remembered your umbr-ella It's hell on earth, best be jealous of my elevation I'm catching rays while your weather vane's under heavy rotation And if you're thinking it's cloudy, here's some clarification It's not the victory, it's the precipitation I hope it rains and the steady ground on which you stand turns to rough terrain I hope it rains and you find yourself staring into the eye of the hurricane And you'll remember I was your sunshine and you lost all you stood to gain I hope it rains I hope it rains I hope it rains I hope it rains and the steady ground on which you stand turns to rough terrain I hope it rains and you find yourself staring into the eye of the hurricane And as the sunset leaves just darkness then I hope that it will sustain And I hope it reigns And I hope it rains I hope it rains
