(Bonnie Bramlett and Eric Clapton)

The rain is falling through the mist

Of sorrow that surrounded me.

The sun could never thaw away

The the bliss that lays around me.

[Chorus:]

Let it rain, let it rain,

Let your love rain down on me.

Let it rain, let it rain,

Let it rain, rain, rain.

Her life was like a desert flower

Burning in the sun.

Until I found the way to love,

It's harder said than done.

[Chorus]

Now I know the secret;

There is nothing that I lack.

If I give my love to you,

You'll surely give it back.

[Chorus]
