Ne Yo - Cant Stop The Rain Lyrics

Oooooh oooh ooh (2x)

27th of january, think he died a year ago today
She's crying on my shoulder and begging me to make the hurting go away
Pretty brown eyes, tears full of guilt, a heart full of pain and fear
I wanna tell her it's okay but we both know she's the reason he's not here.

I keep on crying, but it doesn't seem to help at all [seem to help at all]
With every single tear drop, it's like another raindrop falls
And I would [and I would], if I could [if I could]..but the try would be in vain [the try would be in vain]
Said so matter what I do..I can't stop the rain.
So I cry
Oooooooh..I can't stop the rain [stop the rain] (2x)
If I could, you know I would..but the try would be in vain.
So I cry
Oooooooh..I can't stop the rain [stop the rain]

Faded picture in a little gold locket, and she never takes it off
I know it's small, but it's heavy 'cus it's filled with guilt
I know and she why his life is lost
I feel bad for her, but I'm having mixed emotions
'cus he was a friend of mine
Somewhere in the deepest darkest part of my mind
I wish it was her that died that night

[Ooooh]

I keep on crying, but it doesn't seem to help at all [seem to help at all]
With every single tear drop, it's like another raindrop falls [raindrop falls]
And I would [and I would], if I could [if I could]..but the try would be in vain [the try would be in vain]
Said so matter what I do..I can't stop the rain
So I cry
Oooooooh..I can't stop the rain [stop the rain] (2x)
If I could, you know I would..but the try would be in vain.
So I cry
Oooooooh..I can't stop the rain [stop the rain]

One rainy saturday night, a happy anniversary
Celebrating long[?], champagne all around
They had a little too much to drink
They got in the car, and he could barely stand up
So she figured that she'd drive.
Staring at him I suppose, a sudden jerk of the wheel,
and the car flipped about three times

[Oooooooh]

I keep on crying, but it doesn't seem to help at all.
With every single tear drop, it's like another raindrop falls [raindrop falls].
And I would [and I would], if I could [if I could] ..but the try would be in vain.
Said so matter what I do [what I do]..I can't stop the rain.
So I cry
Oooooooh..I can't stop the rain [stop the rain] (2x)
If I could, you know I would..but the try would be in vain.
Oooooooh..I can't stop the rain [stop the rain]
