Have you ever seen the rain?

Someone told me long ago,
There's a calm before the storm,
I know,
It's been coming for some time.
When it's over, so they say,
It'll rain a sunny day,
I know,
Shinin' down like water.

I wanna know,
Have you ever seen the rain.
I wanna know,
Have you ever seen the rain.
Comin' down a sunny day.

Yesterday and days before,
Sun is cold and rain is hot,
I know,
Been that way for all my time.
Therefore ever more it goes,
Through the circle fast and slow,
I know,
It can't stop, I wonder.

I wanna know,
Have you ever seen the rain.
I wanna know,
Have you ever seen the rain.
Comin' down a sunny day.
