People awoke to another day
It had rained throughout the night
Ate breakfast, went to work and sent their kids to school
With no let up in sight

Just an ordinary rain
Ordinary rain
Who would have thought such a drowning flood
In an ordinary rain
Ordinary rain

She's lonely and she can't remember when
She didn't feel alone
And in her natural state of darkness
With people or at home

He comes home in the evening
Return note that tells it all
She said "I couldn't stand another day
Of this rain that's got to fall"

Just an ordinary rain
Ordinary rain
Who would have thought such a drowning flood
In an ordinary rain
Ordinary rain
To some it is a blessing
But what I've come to know
Is the same rain that drowns one world
Helps another to grow

Ordinary rain
