You're cryin' now just like I used to cry before (rain, rain, rain)
Turn off the tears, girl, I don't care anymore
You can save all your lies 'cause I've heard them all before

Tell it to the rain and the stars that shine above
That it's me you're thinking of
And I'm your love [3: Forget him, love]
