As a child I sang, rain go away,
and I tried to follow the sun
And I stayed dry until you came one day,
but my life had not gone
And you struck my heart like lightning,
thunder filled my brain
And you said run through
the storm with me,
we'll be children of the rain
Children of the rain, children of the rain
It was pouring down
when I first touched you
And your body felt so warm
It was fire and rain when we made love
You were heaven in the storm
And you said, now loosen up my friend
You can let your heart be free
And if you want to be a child again,
you just run and follow me
Children of the rain,
chil dren of the rain
Well I stumbled and I stammered,
but love was in your smile
I couldn't comprehend your madness,
I couldn't understand your style
But still you thought that I could
give to you more joy than pain
And together we ran through the storm,
we were children of the rain
Children of the rain, children of the rain
Now it's been a while and I have no rain,
and now I have no you
Well happiness doesn't always mean
that all your skies are blue
Now I remember cloudy days
when you washed away my pain
And I remember your sweet stormy love
when we were children of the rain
Children of the rain
We were children of the rain
Children of the rain
Children of the rain
