The wind and the rain   Fiercely fall   Pounding on my roof and walls   Feeling nothing like   What I thought it might   When I felt the storm begin tonight      I knew it would   Eventually   Point it's cloudy finger at me   Making me drift behind   Sadly back in time   'Til I heard a voice from somewhere inside      CHORUS:   "Just let the wind and the rain roll off your back   You can do anything but you can't go back   So when you're feeling pain   It ain't no ball and chain   It's just the wind and the rain"      The wind and the rain   let you know   You are always vulnerable   So if it starts to pour   And what's enough cries for more   Don't pull the shades and lock the door      CHORUS (to end)
