the rain lyrics

You say you love me but then you turn and walk away
All for a love not even born yesterday
I see you on the streets and you just pass me by
You think I got no feelings, think I?m living high

But let me tell you
I could be on the TV, I could be in their magazines
But it?s never enough when you felt the touch
Of an angel that?s rocking your soul

When the rain comes down
You?re never around
But when the sun comes up
You always steal the fire

And rain comes down on this side of town
But people have no feelings
They just run around
They just, they just

We keep chasing dollars, it?s making me holler, I just don?t know
I don?t need a check, I need some respect, so people you know
And the war and the babies crying
And the car and the house and the rings and the things
That don?t mean nothing

You could try to hate, classify and make your rate down
But I?m here to elevate, I?ll be floating in outer space now

When the rain comes down
Will you be around?
When the sun comes up
Will you always steal my fire?

And rain comes down on this side of town
But people have no feelings, people
