Rainy Day Man

What good is that happy lie

All you wanted from the start was to cry



It looks like another fall

Your good friends they don't seem to help at all

When you're feeling kind of cold and small

Just look up your rainy day man



It does you no good to pretend child

You've made a hole much too big to mend

And it looks like you lose again, my friend

Call on your rainy day man



Now rainy day man he don't like sunshine

He don't chase rainbows

He don't need good times

Grey days rolling

Then you'll see him

Empty feeling

Now you need him



All those noble thoughts they just don't belong

You can't hide the truth with a happy song

And since you knew where you stood all along

Just look up your rainy day man



Now simple pleasures they all evade you

Store-bought treasures none can save you

Look for signs to ease the pain

Ask again

Go on and pray for rain



It looks like another fall

Your good friends they don't seem to help at all

When you're feeling kind of cold and small

Just look up your rainy day man

All i need to do is look up my rainy day man



Now what good is that happy lie

All you wanted from the start was to cry
