Richard Melvin Brown - Someone to Stop the Rain Lyrics

It seems when love is so brand new that nothings been so strong
But every time I feel that way something always turns so wrong
I guess I'm just the guy who just can't get it right
'Cause all my life where love's involved it's been one long lonely night

Now I'm sitting here and the house is dark just that old familiar pain
And once again I'm praying for someone to stop the rain

I've seen so many come and go you'd think I'd realize
That love and me we just don't click someday I might get wise
I might get wise and stop this game I might get wise and lose this pain
I'll put my heart up on the shelf until someone can stop the rain

Now I'm sitting here and the house is dark just that old familiar pain
And once again I'm praying for someone to stop the rain

The years the loves the broken dreams they've piled up to damn high
So when I think about getting back in the game well I just can't think of why
Why go through it all again why take just one more chance
Who's gonna come along this time to teach me some new dance

Now I'm sitting here and the house is dark just that old familiar pain
And once again I'm praying for someone to stop the rain

I guess I'll keep believing I suppose I'll try once more
I suppose it's worth another try I guess I'll open up the door
So please please tell me you're the one the one to stop this pain
Let me hear it one more time how you're gonna stop the rain

Now I'm sitting here and the house is dark just that old familiar pain
And once again I'm praying for someone to stop the rain
Yes tell me as you lay me down you're the one who'll stop the rain
