Lyrics
🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics! 🎤
I need some sunshine on my faceTo help me dry my eyesI need a blue sky over hereSo I can clear my mindMaybe your soft breath on my backTo make me feel at easeAnything more than what I’ve gotOn this rainy day in JuneIt’s a rainy day in JuneThe sky is gray and I am blueTryin’ to make it without youOn this rainy day in JuneYesterday morning I woke upOn the wrong side of the bedAnd on the right side laid a noteI knew what it saidThen the rain came, hasn’t stoppedI don’t know if it willBut I’ll keep waiting with the hopeful heartOn this rainy day in JuneIt’s a rainy day in JuneThe sky is gray and I am blueTryin’ to make it without youOn this rainy day in JuneThe thunder rolls, the lightning flashesEvery thought began with youI see your face in every clouded pathsOn this rainy day in JuneIt’s a rainy day in JuneThe sky is gray and I am blueTryin’ to make it without youOn this rainy day in June
