Guess I was the one who was too naïve
Thinking you're the one I could run to when the rain starts falling
Water's rising up and it's getting higher
Clouds are rolling in this stormy weather
Where are you now when I need you most?
You tell me lately all I do is bring you down
You don't what to say when I'm around
You don't ask but you'd preferred
I'd take my sorrows and my hurt
Somewhere else (somewhere else)
Oh, if you wanna run away
The moment all the tears start
Falling down my face
I won't stop you go and try to run away
If you can't take the rain
If you can't take the rain

Looking at my life from a new perspective
I am not that the girl that I expected to be
Lift my head off of your shoulder
Stand up straight, I'm getting older
Realizing wants from what I need
If I have to, I know I will let you go
'Cause I am less and less afraid to be alone
I thought you oughta know the truth
But maybe it's too much for you in the end
And oh, if you wanna run away
The moment all the tears start
Falling down my face
I won't stop you go and try to run away
If you can't take the rain
If you can't take the rain
I'm hoping that you will wake up and find that you were just afraid
That all you need was time and my love for you to find your strength
And if I am calm and if I am kind and give you enough space
That would bring you closer
But if you wanna run away
The moment all the tears start
Falling down my face
I won't stop you go and try to run away
If you can't take the rain
If you can't take the rain
If You Can't Take the Rain
