As a child, I sang rain go away
And I tried to follow the sun
And I stayed dry 'til you came one day
But my life had not begun
Then you struck my heart like lightning
And thunder filled my brain
And you said run through the storm with me
We'll be children of the rain
Children of the rain
Children of the rain
It was pouring down when I first touched you
And your body felt so warm
It was fire and rain when we made love
You were heaven in the storm
Then you said now loosen up, my friend
You can let your heart be free
And if you want to be a child again
You just run and follow me
Children of the rain
Children of the rain
Well, I stumble and I stammer
But love was in your smile
I couldn't comprehend your madness
I couldn't understand your style
But still you thought that I could give to you
More joy than pain
And together we ran through the storm
We were children of the rain
Children of the rain
Children of the rain
Now, it's been a while and I have no rain
And now I have no you
Well, happiness doesn't always mean
That all your skies are blue
Now I remember cloudy days
When you washed away my pain
And I remember your sweet stormy love
When we were children of the rain
Children of the rain
We were children of the rain
Children of the rain
Children of the rain
