well its a most peculiar feeling,
like sunburn in the evening,
with dark clouds on their way,
and you think its most unlikely,
life could ever shine as brightly,
once the sun has gone and the pressures on
and the rain is here again
(chorus)
but you dont need the sunshine
dont need the moonlight
dont need the good times
dont need no boogie
well do you find the change in season
effects you without reason
you've greetings but nothing more to say
and youd swear youd feel much better if only summer'd last forever
but the sky is clear
and your nowhere near
and the rain is here again
but you dont need the sunshine (i dont mind the rain)
you dont need the goodtimes (you could feel the same)
lean on me maybe you could see it through if you could only believe a sinlge word is true
you dont need the sunshine
dont need the goodtimes
dont need anything anyones giving (anyones giving)
and i dont mind your lies so keep on talking
well i throw away my sunshine
my so-called little life lines
do you know what i mean?
when i decided that the answer
could not be bought across the counter
my sista dista has left for good
now the rain has gone away
chorus)
but you dont need the sunshine
dont need the goodtimes
dont need anything anyones giving (anyones giving)
and i dont mind your lies so keep on talking
rain has gone away (x5)
and i dont mind your lies so keep on talking
