Well its been rainin' on and on

Ever since you've been gone

Those dark clouds keep rollin' in

And every time I think I might catch myself a glimpse of sunlight

The bottom falls out again

Well I can barely keep afloat

I'm up the creek without a boat

And I've been adriftin' Heaven knows how long

'Cause it's been rainin' 40 days and 40 nights since you've been gone



Hey, well drip drip drip goes the sound of the rain

The four winds are blowin' like a hurricane

My friends said I should settle for any port in a storm

I'd rather be inside your lovin' arms

Safe and warm

Girl it's been a long time since I've seen sunshine

Baby won't you come back home

'Cause it's been rainin' 40 days and 40 night since you've been gone



Aw listen to me now

I keep starin' out the window

Searchin' for a rainbow

To signal that the storm will end

Hey, 'cause I know that the rain'll keep pourin' on the pane

Until my saint comes back marchin' in

Oh, girl its been a long time since I've seen sunshine

Baby won't you come back home

'Cause it's been rainin' 40 days and 40 nights since you've been gone

Hey, well drip drip drip goes the sound of the rain

The four winds are blowin' like a hurricane

My friends said I should settle for any port in a storm

I'd rather be inside your lovin' arms

Safe and warm

Girl it's been a long time since I've seen sunshine

Baby won't you come back home

'Cause its been rainin' 40 days and 40 night since you've been gone

Yeah its been rainin' 40 days and 40 nights since you've been gone
