[Verse 1]
Wakin' up to the sound of rain pourin' down
Think I'll just call in and we'll call it our day
If they miss me at work, well, they can just fake it
Love is the best excuse of all, so let's just stay inside and make it

[Chorus]
On a blue, rainy day, there ain't nothin' takes the place of love (Blue, rainy day)
That old rooftop rain is playin' rhythm with its own special touch (Ooh, got that special touch)
Outside, the world is so dreary (So dreary), but inside, our love's shinin' through (Shinin' through)
There ain't nothin' like love on a blue, rainy day with you

[Verse 2]
We won't even get up, we'll have breakfast in bed
We'll have love over easy, and over again
And if the telephone rings, well, we'll just ignore it
'Cause when it comes to lovin' you, hon, when it's rainin', it's pourin'

[Chorus]
On a blue, rainy day, there ain't nothin' takes the place of love (Blue, rainy day)
That old rooftop rain is playin' rhythm with its own special touch (Ooh, got that special touch)
Outside, the world is so dreary (So dreary), but inside, our love's shinin' through (Shinin' through)
There ain't nothin' like love on a blue, rainy day with you

[Bridge]
Baby, we've reined in (And it's warm inside)
So let's get some love in (It can't be denied)
[Chorus]
On a blue rainy day, there ain't nothin' takes the place of love (Blue, rainy day)
That old rooftop rain is playin' rhythm with its own special touch (Ooh, got that special touch)
Outside, the world is so dreary (So dreary), but inside, our love's shinin' through (Shinin' through)
There ain't nothin' like love on a blue, rainy day with you
