Yesterday, I was a young man,
Searching for my way,
Not knowing
What I wanted,
Living life
From day to day, yeah
'Til she came along,
There was nothing but an empty space...
Not a trace
Feels like
Colored rain
Tastes like
Colored rain
Rain down colored rain...
Rain...yeah
I can feel those color changes
Going through my mind,
United
With a feeling
Bringing love
Into my eye, yeah
'Til she came along,
There was nothing but an empty space...
Not a trace
Feels like
Colored rain
Tastes like
Colored rain
Rain down colored rain...
Rain...
Bring it on down, babe
Spill
I can feel those color changes
Going through my mind,
United
With a feeling
Bringing love
Into my eye, yeah
'Til she came along,
There was nothing but an empty space...
Not a trace
Feels like
Colored rain,baby
Don't you know, it feels like colored rain
Don't you know, baby,
It's not all the time
That the sun won't shine
Babe
Babe
If you love me,
If you want me
To be your man -
yeah, yeah -
There's one thing, baby,
Every woman should understand, mmm
Without rain, babe,
Our love will never grow
And if you want my sunshine,
You got to accept my hail, rain, snow
That's one thing ,baby,
That I want you to do for me, yeah
I want you to take off all your clothes, babe
I want you to
Walk out of my door, yeah (yeah)
Baby
Dig that colored rain, yeah (yeah)
Bring it on down, yeah (yeah)
Bring it on down, yeah (yeah)
Bring it on down
