[Verse 1] Summer rain, wash away
the things I want to forget, the nights I've come to regret
Blue sky days bring me pain
I need the fall of the rain (The fall of the rain)

[Hook] Cleanse me, I don't want to feel empty
(The fall of the rain)
So sweet, so then why does it test me?

[Chorus] Heaven help us, heaven help us
I've cried way too much lately
Tell me lovely, tell me lovely,
when's enough enough? Lately
I look forward to falling showers
lying awake in the early hours
Lying awake in the early hours
Lying awake in the early hours

[Verse 2] Summer rain, hold my hand
and walk with me to the park. We better go before dark
Feelings drained, bring me pain
Oh, I need the fall of the rain (The fall of the rain)

[Hook] Cleanse me, I don't want to feel empty
(The fall of the rain)
So sweet, so then why does it test me?

[Chorus] Heaven help us, heaven help us
I've cried way too much lately
Tell me lovely, tell me lovely,
when's enough enough? Lately
I look forward to falling showers
lying awake in the early hours

[Bridge] Cleanse me of the things from the dead of spring
Bring me summer rain
Cleanse me of the pain, make my worries sing,
loving everything

[Chorus] Heaven help us, heaven help us
I've cried way too much lately
Tell me lovely, tell me lovely,
when's enough enough? Lately
I look forward to falling showers
lying awake in the early hours
Heaven help us, heaven help us (Cleanse me,)
I've cried way too much lately (I don't want to feel)
Tell me lovely, tell me lovely, (empty)
when's enough enough? Lately (Cleanse me,)
I look forward to falling showers (I don't want to feel)
lying awake in the early hours (empty)

[Outro] Cleanse me, I don't want to feel empty
