On a perfect day I know that I can count on you.
When that's not possible, tell me, can you weather the storm?
'Cause I need somebody who will stand by me.
Through the good times and the bad times
Who will always, always be right there.
Sunny days - everybody loves them.
Tell me, can you stand the rain?
Storms will come, this we know for sure.
Can you stand the rain?
Love unconditional - I'm not asking this of you.
And, to make it last I'll do wherever needs to be done.
But I need somebody who will stand by me.
When it's tough who won't run.
Who will always be right there for me.
Storms will come, I know, I know, all the days won't be perfect.
This we know for sure. But tell me can you stand it?
Can you stand the rain? No pressure, no pressure from me.
'Cause I want you, and I need you, and I love you.
Tell me, can you stand the rain?
Normally I make the statement "don't read too much into what is said", but this time, read what you want into what is said. If you believe that it pertains to you, then ask yourself...Can you stand the rain? Will you be there for me?
If that question causes you to stop and think, or even get defensive; then you have your answer and don't need to approach me at all with your comments, statements, excuses, attacks or sympathy.
Believe me, you can be in a crowd of millions and still be alone.
