Eli Young Band - When It Rains Lyrics






Give me skies of black and blue, the way you make me feel
Give me skies of green and red, cold winds that make it real
Storms are brewing deep within of hurt and loss and pride
It's good to see the world in pain when I take a walk outside

When it rains, I don't mind being lonely, I cry right along with the sky
When it rains, I don't pretend to be happy, I don't even have to try
When it rains, Some people get down, They're sporting a frown, so I fit right in
Yeah, the sun may brighten your day but if I had my way, I'd take the rain

I don't care about politics or the hypocrites on my TV
I'm not mad at the girl who left because she couldn't be with me
So make up your theories about the scandals and the lies
Start out depressed then everything comes as a pleasant surprise

When it rains, I don't mind being lonely, I cry right along with the sky
When it rains, I don't pretend to be happy, I don't even have to try
When it rains, Some people get down, They're sporting a frown, so I fit right in
Yeah, the sun may brighten your day but if I had my way, I'd take the rain

[Solo]

When it rains, I don't mind being lonely, I cry right along with the sky
When it rains, I don't pretend to be happy, I don't even have to try
When it rains, Some people get down, They're sporting a frown, so I fit right in
Yeah, the sun may brighten your day but if I had my way, I'd take the rain

They played this song and I looked at my friend told her if this band gets big this will be the song that puts them there. A year or two later, living in Colorado, heard this song on the radio and now look how far they've gotten.

  56. f.... 4....

    Were I am now is raining

  57. J.... F....

    I love this song

  58. H.... C....

    I used to listen to them when I was little, I'd sing and sound so bad *even after being criticized for singing bad* I didn't let it show that bit got to me and kept singing

  59. H.... C....

    I'd pick rain WHOOO HOOO

    Mike Mike agreed

  62. L.... N....

    Do you love Eli Young Band? Well, tickets for their -Winter Tour are on sale now! Check it out!
    http://cncrt.ly/EYBWINTER16

  63. J.... M....

    if i had my way I'd take the rain

  64. L.... A....

    Raining here also

  65. L.... S....

    Good song

  66. c.... ....

    It's raining where I live right now!!

  67. N.... C....

    The melody of this song is no where near the same as fade to black, the two songs sound vastly different, i mean i love Metallica, but Eli Young band didnt steal the melody.

  68. B.... K....

    Love the rain! It's raining now.

  69. T.... L....

    Does no one realize that the guitar riff is the exact same as Fade to Black by Metallica which was written 30 years ago. Instead of actually composing a song, producers think they can just steal material from an old song that "hopefully no one remembers."

    T.... L....

    That's how music works.

    T.... L....

    Tommy Lee you're a fucking idiot clean your ears

  70. c.... s....

  75. M.... M....

    The Gift

    You can’t put away your dreams
    Got to deal with what has come
    The darkness and the rain
    The ecstasy and the pain
    Live like there is no tomorrow
    Love the one your with
    Take every day of sorrow like a gift.

    M.S. Morrison

  76. J.... C....

    so in love with this song , there so amazing.

  77. B.... B....

    This has helped me through my break up and I'm still so in love with him and he knows he made a mistake but I can't go back.

  78. A.... ....

    Rather than a depressing song, I think this is a tune that says being whole, being human, and being honest about our self is really all we have. Never mind the rest.

  79. G.... B....

    this song is so underrated. 

    G.... B....

    Gabriel Baez just the fag polo makes it bad

    It's amazing how far they got, they started out as a small band from Texas and now they're heard worldwide. 

    K.... R....

    I cant think of ANY band that started out famous.
    smh

    K.... R....

    @TheRazzaManazza I'm pretty fucking sure I didn't ask you, just giving props to the band you don't have to be so negative.

    K.... R....

    Be careful Will, she might think you are negative and respond with even MORE negativity and crude language.

    K.... R....

    Kristen R why can you say, Texas is HUGE

    K.... R....

    TheRazzaManazza well sorry he hurt your sensitive feelings

  85. f.... ....

    I know I'm not the first to say this, but these vocals ARE very reminiscent of Sister hazel.

  86. a.... j....

    This is a AMAZING song, especially for me. It makes me realize all the days of my life, They don't have to be sunny.... Those rainy ones just turn on this tune and think of all the other people just like me. My one word- FANTASTIC!! I absolutely Love the way this song can relate to so many people and make them feel better because their not alone. And to do it in such a Great up beat song. That is Love right there...
