0:08Raindrops tumble to the ground
0:11Making puddles all around
0:15Drops of rain that look like tears
0:18Fall on my window pane
0:23Raindrops seem to harmonize
0:27With teardrops falling from my eyes
0:30And my tears keep falling down
0:33As steady as the rain
0:39Steady as the rain they fall
0:42Tears that just won't dry at all
0:45Tears that cannot wash away the pain
0:53Sometimes without knowing it
0:56I touch my face and find it wet
0:59And my tears keep falling down
1:03As steady as the rain
1:13I can't face the fact that
1:17I am not important in your life
1:20Once you lived for rollin' me
1:23And then your feelings changed
1:29There's just no gettin' over you
1:32I try so hard, but it's no use
1:36And my tears keep falling down
1:39As steady as the rain
1:45Raindrops just keep falling down
1:48Beatin' out their rhythmic sounds
1:52Dancin' as they play their sweet refrain
1:59Memories of you cloud my mind
2:02Cloud my eyes and I start cryin'
2:06And my tears keep falling down
2:09As steady as the rain
2:14As steady as the rain
2:25Steady as the rain they fall
2:28Tears that just won't dry at all
2:32Tears that just won't wash away the pain
2:39Memories of you cloud my mind
2:42Cloud my eyes and I start cryin'
2:45And my tears keep falling down
2:48As steady as the rain
2:54As steady as the rain
