Lyrics
Right as the rain
That falls from above
So real, so right
Is our love
It came like the spring
That breaks through the snow
I can’t say what it may bring
I only know, I only know
It’s right to believe
Whatever gave your eyes this glow
Whatever gave my heart this song
Can’t be wrong
It’s right as the rain
That falls from above
And fills the world with the bloom
Of our love
I only know it’s right to believe
Whatever gave your eyes this glow
Whatever gave my heart this song
Can’t be wrong
It’s right as the rain
That falls from above
And fills the world with the bloom
Of our love
As rain must fall
And day must dawn
This love, this love
Must go on
