I can't make the Moon glow
And I can't make a gray storm cloud
And I can't make the wind blow or the Sun come out
I can't make the waves break
And I can't make the whole sky blue
No, I can't do a lot of things, but there's one thing that I can do

I can make it rain
I can make her tears fall down
Take everything we used to be
And leave it puddled up on the ground
Yeah, I can make it flood
And watch it wash it all away
Take all our love and pour it down the drain
Yeah, I can make it rain

I can make it rain

No, I can't make her stay
And I can't make her take me back
I can't make her miss me, no, I can't do none of that
I can't make her smile
And I can't make her hurt no less
And, no, I can't unbreak her heart, but I can leave it soakin' wet

Cause I can make it rain
And I can make her tears fall down
Take everything that we used to be
And leave it puddled up on the ground
'Cause I can make it flood
And watch it wash it all away
Take all our love and pour it down the drain
Yeah, I can make it rain

I can make it rain

And I can see her pain in every drop
But I can't see no way to make it stop

But I can make it rain
And I can make her tears fall down
Take everything that we used to be
And leave it puddled up on the ground
Yeah, 'cause I can make it flood
And watch it wash it all away
And take all our love and pour it down the drain
Yeah, I can take all our love and just pour it down the drain
'Cause I can make it rain

Yeah, I can make it rain
