Electric Light Orchestra - Rain Is Falling Lyrics
(Rain rain, go away, come again another day)
Early in the morning
The sun was up and the sky was very blue
Without a warning
A noise in the city made the children run
And hide themselves away
And thunder boomed and lightning filled the sky.
Looking from this window
A thousand rivers running past my door
Standing on an island
Looking for someone upon the shore
I cane see it very clearly, nothing's really changed
Then lightning strikes across an empty sky.
[CHORUS:]
Ooohh, the rain is falling
Ooohh, the rain is falling
Ooohh, the rain is falling
Will it wash away the lonely tears?
(It's raining, it's pouring, the old man is snoring)
With their brand new time transporter
They'll think maybe I fought to get away
But with all their great inventions
And all their good intentions, here I stay
Down on the corner where the sun had shone
The people gathered round
Then scattered as the raindrops hit the ground.
[REPEAT CHORUS]
(It's raining, it's pouring, the old man is snoring)
[REPEAT CHORUS]
(It's raining, it's pouring, the old man is snoring)
(Rain rain, go away, come again another day)

Electric Light Orchestra Rain Is Falling Comments
Had to put my headphones on. otherwise the neighbours would get pissed off. Great song from a superb album.
ELO POLISH
Гениальная вещь
The first ever record I bought was Mr Blue Sky, ELO started my music buying journey, I have this LP too, and here I am 41yrs later listening to this classic piece.
Hey,young people try it.Prove u are open to genius
Hey young artists try to sing like he .I bet u cannot
This is a fucking amazing song!
To. Jest Hit ... Niech inni się wstydzą.... E.L.O. KING.... POZDRAWIAM Z POLSKI
Beatles + queen + mozart+ vivaldi = Jeff Lynee ELO
This song is EPIC
This album opens my heart so it can catch the rain. Never fails to give me the chills.
É cada música melhor que a outra
1981, I was 14. For some reason today I had "Twilight" stuck in my head ... turns out I still remember the lyrics to every song on this album :-)
I was also 14 in 1981. Twilight was playing on the radio... all I wanted is to listen to it over and over again. And still love it. Time is timeless )) It's a masterpiece, pure magic and... so deeply underrated.
Since I was 15 in 1981
And about this album
I have listened to countless albums
And nothing comes close to the genius of Jeff Lynne = ELO
Time the best album of all tim as far as I'm concerned.👍🌓👩🚀📽🥳🛰🌟🌟🌟👨🚀👨🚀
And this is my favorite track on the album since I'm a sucker for rain songs
Einfach wunderschön !
T. T. 💜 Oh Im hoping!! Nov.
13, 2019.
ELO through the TIME...
I just notice how perfectly this song could fit before "Mr. Blue Sky"
Yeah same here!
Ever heard of Concerto for a Rainy Day?
I like ELO. This music calms my nervous brain.
#101 on Hot 100.
first ELO single to bubble under.
I think this is my favorite song of this album
...дети бегут по лужам под чистым дождем...
(весной)
To get the highest soundquality should I put it on 1080 or doesnt it matter
I called this a science fiction album. I love it.
Isn't this what Tame Impala wish they sounded like? I dunno.....
ELO is the greatest band ever
Esta cancion me recuerda mucho cuando mi padre murio! :C
I should be doing homework, but ELO
....a real classic!
This sounds Beatles
the unBeatles....
Beautiful. Reminds me of my ex-girlfriend. I remember us listening to that song one summer evening. The rain fell down. I wanted to freeze that moment for a little bit longer.
Happening-to-me-right-now
😘😘👌😊
Jeff Lynne is a musical God in my eyes. There's no better musician in my mind.
i love Jeff, ... with all my heart. <3
Marisol Alvarado te conocí mientras la lluvia caía, espero que te encuentres bien en nuestra bella comarca lagunera México y que seas una gran enfermera gordita linda
Le jour où je meurs ce sera une des chansons qui m'accompagnera
The whole album is absolutely brilliant.👍👍👍
Deffo my top 10 of best Albums of all time! (Lol)
Jeff Lynn is amazing!
I feel sorry for the people that overlooked this incredible album.
agreed.
Simplesmente amooooo
This is my favorite song of all time. Holy moly! I’m pretty young, does anyone know if this song was on the radio.
Now 52.Loved this since the 80s.30 odd years later I listen to it for it takes me back to time and space I loved.Peace from South Africa
Ole' ELO
In Germany I heard it several times on the radio back in 82. But it was never released as a single.
It was actually issued as a single in the states but amazingly, didn't chart at all
I love any song with rain in the title..
A melhor do Elo
This is the greatest song of all time!
So beautiful
Underrated song
The Beatles never really split ....they just passed in to Jeff Lynns consciousness XD
I can almost hear John Lennon singing this
The sky was very blue..
Then he notices the raindrops
Is this.. a sunshower?
South Carolina
Love this song! It's raining cats & dogs at the moment.
I love this song one of my favorite songs of all time
great song fantastic
Make me remember Old Dirty Road from John Lennon.
Nie wiem,dlaczego łapki w dół.Super muzka😃
i love that brass sounding arp
Early in the moning~
estoy llorando ahora....cuantos recuerdos...
Early in the morning
The sun was up and the sky was a-very blue,
Without a warning,
As I looked out, my thoughts returned to you,
A noise in the city made the children run,
And hide themselves away,
And thunder boomed and lightning filled the sky.
Looking from this window,
A thousand rivers running past my door,
Standing on an island, looking for someone,
Upon the shore,
I can see it very clearly nothing's really changed,
Then lightning strikes across an empty sky.
Ooohh, the rain is falling
Ooohh, the rain is falling
Ooohh, the rain is falling
Will it wash away those lonely tears,
With their brand new time transporter,
They'll think maybe I fought to get away,
But with all their great inventions,
And all their good intentions, here I stay,
Down on the corner where the sun had shone,
The people gathered 'round,
Then scattered as the raindrops hit the ground.
Ooohh, the rain is falling
Ooohh, the rain is falling
Ooohh, the rain is falling
Will it wash away those lonely tears.
🌌🚀🌌
Thank you for the lyrics. Much appreciated.
@Kevin Larkin ?
Cool thanks for posting the words 😀✌️✌️✌️
Brilliant.
Who else sometimes hears “that’s my dong” instead of “past my door”?
すごい
ELO Jeff Lynn GREAT
Linda do meu coração..
masterpiece!!
Jeff could be a perfect match to be a fifth Beatle!!!.. as he dreamed I think
Jeff produced some of the Beatles songs back in the day. He was very close to George Harris as you see that in the Traveling Wilburys
But he was the 5th Beatle.
Simple y sencillamente magistral!!
without a warning, the noise made the beauty hide its color away. with no beauty left in the world what was the rain to feed?
ooooo the rain is falling
Me transporta a mis 14 años...
Dioses,como se nos va la vida...
Como arena entre las manos,y sin darnos cuenta.
E.L.O. Fantastic
okj polen
absolutely great!!! i can still remember my times at the university. a disc jockey played this music at a square nearby. my favourite is the whole album. but i relate "From the end of the world" with the book i was reading at that time for the university The Time Machine. it was a magic combination.
Absolutely love this..... had a dream a few days after a family member passed away and this was playing in my dream..... special place in my heart :)
cathy yates on the last day of school, it was non uniform day and when I was walking to school, it was raining and this song was playing in my mind.
My brain does that too🌹🌹
kocham ten utwór, mogę go słuchać w nieskończoność.
To ,tak i jak i ja ! Pozdrawiam cieplutko
nuansamatik
Super musica,super banda !
einfach cool 😃😍👍
A ja kocham Elektryków i już
ja teżżżżż
Im IMAGINE John lennon singing..
Genial!! 😊😊
Mój nauczyciel angielskiego puścił nam tą piosenkę. Powtarzał, że ta piosenka może być interpretowana różnie. A ja chyba właśnie znalazłem moją interpretację :)
are you from union soviet ?
+LF Gamer I am from Poland and that country used to "belong" to Soviet Union. But I was born in 1998, and Sovet Union broke 7 years before, so no. I was born in free Poland.
E.L.O.bylo baardzo popularne w Polsce na początku lat 80. Grali ich w trójce.
mmmmmmmmmmm
this song makes me feel in peace ...
Not a fan of this genera, I can still recognize the apparent quality.
Arthur Dent what?
So good
Supper!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
what is it with Jeff Lynne and rain?
LOL....I thought of that for many years too!!
actually his "rain" songs are his best, esp. Standin in the Rain
I live in northern England and for some reason it's not raining at the moment, in fact there's this large firey ball in the sky - assumably it will soon collide with earth. Still enjoying this song though. Kinda nice way to end the world. Think I'll play 'Mr Blue Sky' next if I have time!
He came from Brum.
Rain can be scary, but also comforting. It's a force of nature and should be respected as such, but it cleanses filth and is the start of something new. Rain is amazing.
Mozart, Schubert, Verdi, Chopin, Jeff Lynne............................
And Johann Sebastian Bach
That's all you got xd??
I'm with you totally on that
Your absolutely right 👍👨🚀🛰
Beethoven
Гениальная вещь!
la melodía flota ingrávida...increíble temaso de Lynn
What a great song!
