Have you ever seen the rain ?

Someone told me long ago, there's a calm before the storm
I know, it's been coming for some time
When it's over, so they say, it'll rain a sunny day
I know, shinnin' down like water

I want to know, have you ever seen the rain ?
I want to know, have you ever seen the rain ?
Comin' down on a sunny day

Yesterday, and days before, sun is cold and rain is hard
I know, been that way for all my time
'till forever, on it goes, through the circle, fast and slow
I know, it can't stop, I wonder
