When it rains when it rains Oh my heart don't feel the same Nothing change nothing change Comrade I don't feel the same With my foot to the floor Hear my key turn in the door Holing back what's in store? When a girl wants a little bit more What's a girl like me to do? When she don't get a thing from you Want to know where your going to Have to do watcha have to do What's a girl supposed to try? When all you do is criticise Pretty soon you'll realise, I can see it I can see it in a boy's eyes See it in a boy's, see it in a boy's eyes See it in a boy's, see it in a boy's eyes When it rains when it rains On my heart don't feel the same There's the sun in my sky You don't see you don't even try But you'd die before you cry Solitude is where you fly You don't say this ain't right, But I see it in your eyes What's a girl like me to do? When she don't get a thing from you Want to know where your going to Have to do watcha have to do What's a girl supposed to try? When all you do is criticise Pretty soon you'll realise, I can see it I can see it in a boy's eyes See it in a boy's, see it in a boy's eyes See it in a boy's, see it in a boy's eyes x2 La la la la la la la la la la la la x4 What's a girl like me to do? When she don't get a thing from you Want to know where your going to Have to do watcha have to do What's a girl supposed to say? Just turn around and walk away? Pretty soon you'll realise, I can see it I can see it in a boy's eyes What's a girl like me to do? When she don't get a thing from you Want to know where your going to Have to do watcha have to do What's a girl supposed to say? Just turn around and walk away? Pretty soon you'll realise, I can see it I can see it in a boy's eyes I can see it in a boy's eyes I can see it in a boy's eyes See it in a boy's see it in a boys eyes
