The Cascades Rhythm of the Rain Lyrics:
[Sounds of thunder and rain.]
Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain,
Telling me just what a fool I've been.
I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain,
And let me be alone again.
The only girl I care about has gone away,
Lookin' for a brand new start.
But little does she know that when she left that day,
Along with her she took my heart.
Rain, please tell me, now does that seem fair,
For her to steal my heart away when she don't care?
I can't love another, when my heart's somewhere far away.
The only girl I care about has gone away,
Lookin' for a brand new start.
But little does she know that when she left that day,
Along with her she took my heart.
[Instrumental break.]
Rain, won't you tell her that I love her so.
Please ask the sun to set her heart aglow.
Rain in her heart and let the love we knew start to grow.
Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain,

I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain,
And let me be alone again.
Oh, listen to the falling rain,
[Sounds of thunder and rain.]
Pitter-patter, pitter-patter, oh-oh-oh-oh.
[Fade.]
Listen, listen to the falling rain,
Pitter-patter, pitter-patter, oh-oh-oh-oh.
Listen, listen...
