When the Rain Comes

[Verse 1]
Winter days have been and gone
And the spring is upon us
Descending slower day by day is the dusk

[Verse 2]
The summer sky uncurls itself
And grows like violets
The town is in its evening dress by nine

[Chorus]
And when the rain comes
We'll be thankful for our backs are burnt
And dance through the garden
Making music with our laughter

[Post-Chorus]
Oh

[Verse 3]
Well, let me now confide in you
That these times will pass quickly
So take them firmly by the hand and fly

[Chorus]
And when the rain comes
We'll be thankful for our backs are burnt
And dance through the garden
Making music with our laughter

[Post-Chorus]
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
