It was rainin' hard in Houston when I ran into her   I searched for conversation but I was lost for words   Then a cloud of tear filled memories came crashin' down on me   If it hadn't been for the pourin' rain I'm sure she would have seen      Tears in the rain   Hidin' the pain   Maybe she'd come back   If she could see me cry   She thinks I'm so strong   Oh, but she's so wrong   She just couldn't see these tears in the rain      Now, I'll regret that moment 'Cuz I didn't let her know   How much I still loved her I was hopin' it would show   But the raindrops and the teardrops ran together on my face   Now she'll never, ever know no one can take her place      Tears in the rain   Hidin' the pain   Maybe she'd come back   If she could see me cry   She thinks I'm so strong   Oh, but she's so wrong   She just couldn't see these tears in the rain      She thinks I'm so strong   Oh, but she's so wrong   She just couldn't see these tears in the rain
