Lyrics and song meaning at end
Song Meaning Basically it means you go through some tough times, but you get back on your feet and everything is all good, you’re happy, the outlook is great, it’s a beautiful day, then something bad happens again, you just deal with it. He’s asking have you ever seen the rain? yeah, it’s depressing but it goes away. Don’t think it doesn’t.
Someone told me long ago There's a calm before the storm I know it's been comin' 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 hard I know been that way for all my time 'Til forever, on 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 to know Have you ever seen the rain Comin' down a sunny day? Yeah I wanna know Have you ever seen the rain? I want to know Have you ever seen the rain Comin' down a sunny day?
