This is New York, yo (It's getting dark) Night falls on the city Finds me all alone Makes me wonder Should I just go on home And I walk up the stairs To see if you're sill there Would you mind if I found you alone Then a cold wind came callin' Strange how it knew it'd bother me See the night would fade But the pain's gonna stay Makes me wonder Have you ever made love to me I can't stop the rain, here it comes again Lightnin' strikes across the sky Oh, I can't stop the rain, here it comes again Lightnin' only blinds my eyes Ain't it sad When the only love I ever had Just slips away Right through my fingers Ain't it a shame when I think of your name The only memory I have is pain I can't stop the rain, here it comes again Lightnin' strikes across the sky Oh, I can't stop the rain, here it comes again It takes a witch to curse that goddamn sky I can't stop the rain, here it comes again Lightnin' strikes across the sky Oh, I can't stop the rain, here it comes again 'Cause lightnin' only blinds my eyes Oh, I can't stop the rain, here it comes again 'Cause lightnin' only blinds my eyes Can't stop it, blinds my eyes
