ROSES IN THE RAIN
(Lyrics by Al Frisch, Fred Wise / Music by Frankie Carle)
Frank Sinatra - 1947
We don't mind if clouds descend or if skys are gray
Let me tell you how we'll spend this lovely rainy day
When rain drops glisten , why sit and listen
Behind our window pane
Let's stroll out yonder , so we can wander
Thru roses in the rain
We'll watch the showers , that kiss the flowers
Perhaps we'll do the same
And I am hopin' , your heart will open
Like roses in the rain
Won't we be a lucky girl and fella
We'll never care how dark it seems
When we're trading in an old umbrella
For a million bright new dreams
Before the rain goes , we'll look for rain-bows
That bloom in lovers lane
Till sunlight settles , upon the petals
Of roses in the rain ..
