What good is that happy lie?
All you wanted from the start was to cry, girl
It looks like another fall
Your friends, they don't seem to help at all
Now 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
So go look up your rainy day man
bridge
Now rainy day man don't like sunshine
He don't chase rainbows
He don't need good times
Grey days rolling
Then you'll see him
I said empty feeling Lord, now you need him
V3
All those noble thoughts, they don't belong
Can't hide the truth with a happy song
And since you knew where you stood all along
Just call on your rainy day man
Bridge
Now simple pleasures, they all evade you
Store-bought treasures, Lord, none can save you,
Look for signs to ease the pain
I said ask again Go on and pray for rain
Ch out
It looks like another fall
Your friends, they don't seem to help at all
Now when you're feeling kind of cold and small
Just look up your rainy day man
All I'm asking you to do is, look up your rainy day man
