Lyrics
Well, I love a rainy night
I love a rainy night
I love to hear the thunder
Watch the lightnin’ when it lights up the skies
You know it makes me feel good
Well, I love a rainy night
It’s such a beautiful sight
I love to feel the rain on my face
Taste the rain on my lips
In the moonlight shadows
Showers wash all of my cares away
I wake up to a sunny day
‘Cause I love a rainy night
Yeah, I love a rainy night
Well, I love a rainy night
Well, I love a rainy night
Ooh, ooh
I love a rainy night
I love a rainy night
I love to hear the thunder
Watch the lightnin’ when it lights up the skies
You know it makes me feel good
Well, I love a rainy night
It’s such a beautiful sight
I love to feel the rain on my face
Taste the rain on my lips
In the moonlight shadows
Puts a song in this heart of mine
Puts a smile on my face every time
‘Cause I love a rainy night
Yeah, I love a rainy night
Ooh, I love a rainy night
Yeah, I love a rainy night
Ooh, ooh
Showers wash all of my cares away
I wake up to a sunny day
‘Cause I love a rainy night
Yeah, I love a rainy night
Well, I love a rainy night
I love a rainy night
Well, I love a rainy night
You can see it in my eyes
Yeah, I love a rainy night
Well, it makes me high
Ooh, I love a rainy night
You know I do
Yeah, yeah, I love a rainy night
I love a rainy night
You can see it in my eyes
I love a rainy night
Makes me high
Well, I love a rainy night
And I love you too
Yeah, I love a rainy night
Well, I love a rainy night
Well, I love a rainy night
