Someone told me long ago theres a calm before the storm,
I know; its been comin for some time
When its over, so they say, itll 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 cant stop, I wonder

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

Yeah!

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
