Lyrics
It was raining, dear, when I met you
You smiled, the sun shone through
Then it rained again and I lost you
Just why I never knew
Now ev’ry time the storm clouds gather
Way up in the sky
I see them all and I recall
Those happy days gone by
Chorus
I get the blues when it rains
The blues I can’t lose when it rains
Each little drop that falls on my window pane
Always reminds me of the tears I’ve shed in vain
I sit and wait for the sun
To shine down on me once again
It rained when I found you
It rained when I lost you
That’s why I’m so blue when it rains
