In corridors of air the clouds were waiting there 
They knew that never again the skies would be so blue 
They took away the sun and with it took the fun 
It's true, and now there is really nothing I can do 
So I look outside my window at the sheets of pouring rain 
And I wonder if the sun will come again  
But the sun will never shine the way it used to do 
The clouds won't let it through 
Oh the sun will never shine its smile for me and you 
The clouds won't let it through  
 
It wasn't long ago the people that I knew were glad 
And nothing they ever thought about was sad 
But since the sun has gone their laughing times are none 
That's bad, to make them forget the happy times they've had 
So they look outside their window at the sheets of pouring rain 
And they wonder if the sun will come again  
 
But the sun will never shine the way it used to do 
The clouds won't let it through 
Oh the sun will never shine its smile for me and you 
The clouds won't let it through
