Song Lyrics

My mother always said to me, "Be honest to yourself
And always be the best that you can be
Never let life pass you by", was her philosophy
But I never saw the tears she cried

You can't stop the rain falling
Stop the rain falling
Can't stop the rain falling
Stop the rain falling down

There comes a time when every boy
Grows up to be himself
Always searching for the perfect plan
To define his rite of passage, his responsibility
So he can do the best he can

But you can't stop the rain falling
Stop the rain falling
Can't stop the rain falling
Stop the rain falling down

If we knew what we know now, we'd probably change
How we've handled humanity
So we have to believe we have come to our senses
In truth and sincerity

You can't stop the rain falling
Stop the rain falling
Can't stop the rain falling
Stop the rain falling
You can't stop the rain falling down

Chris Squire, Roger Frank King, Steve Hackett
