Bless the chilly wind that blows your love my way
Like a lusty storm come rollin' from the sea
I see clouds of joy parade across your eyes
At the mercy of the weather I look up at the sky

And I pray for rain
Look for love to keep on fallin'
Baby, you and I keep the well from runnin' dry
And that's why I pray for rain

Long and empty nights of life without your love
Like a barren waste of arid desert sand
Start to flower and the juices start to flow
When I met you it was rainin' and little did I know

That I would pray for rain
Look for love to keep on fallin'
Baby, you and I keep the well from runnin' dry
And that's why I pray for rain

And I pray for rain
Look for love to keep on fallin'
Baby, you and I keep the well from runnin' dry
And that's why I pray for rain, yes I do
