  • Here comes the rain again
    Falling on my head like a memory
    Falling on my head like a new emotion
    I want to walk in the open wind
    I want to talk like lovers do
    Want to dive into your ocean
    Is it raining with you?

    So, baby, talk to me
    Like lovers do
    Walk with me
    Like lovers do
    Talk to me
    Like lovers do

    Here comes the rain again
    Raining in my head like a tragedy
    Tearing me apart like a new emotion (ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
    I want to breathe in the open wind
    I want to kiss like lovers do
    Want to dive into your ocean
    Is it raining with you?

    So, baby, talk to me
    Like lovers do
    Walk with me
    Like lovers do
    Talk to me
    Like lovers do

    So, baby, talk to me
    Like lovers do

    Ooh
    Ooh, yeah
    Here it comes again
    Ooh-ooh
    Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

    Here it comes the rain again
    Falling on my head like a memory
    Falling on my head like a new emotion
    (Here it comes again, here it comes again, oh-ah)
    I want to walk in the open wind
    I want to talk like lovers do
    Want dive into your ocean
    Is it raining with you?

    Ooh, here it comes again
    Here comes the rain again (I said)
    Falling on my head like a memory
    Falling on my head like a new emotion (ooh, ooh, yeah)
    I want to walk in the open wind (ooh, ooh)
    I want to talk like lovers do
    I want to dive into your ocean
    Is it raining with you?

    Here comes the rain again
    Falling on my head like a memory
    Falling on my head like a new emotion Writer/s: Annie Lennox, David Allan Stewart

  • Roy from CanadaProof you don't have to reach #1 to be a classic. If I recall correctly it was one of the most played songs the year it came out.
  • Barry from Sauquoit, NyOn March 10th 1984, the video for the Eurythmics' "Here Comes the Rain Again" was aired on the ABC-TV program 'American Bandstand'...
    At the time the song was at #8 on Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart; fifteen days later on March 25th, 1984 it would peak at #4 for two weeks...
    It reached #8 in both the United Kingdom and Ireland...
    Between 1982 and 1989 the duo had fifteen Top 100 records; three made the Top 10 with one reaching #1, "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)"* for one week on August 28th, 1983...
    * Before peaking at #1 "Sweet Dreams" spent four weeks at #2, and for all four of those weeks the #1 record was "Every Breathe You Take" by the Police.
  • Cyberpope from Richmond, CanadaI thought of "talk to me like lovers do" was addressing the rain, & asking it to be soft & gentle. . .
  • Esskayess from Dallas, TxAlways loved the instrumentation in this song, but why did Lennox have to constantly sound like a monotone computer? She obviously had a good voice, but I often disliked the way she used it.
  • Jim from Boston, MaGod, the pipes on that woman. Stunning.
  • Guy from Woodinville, WaA beautiful, simple, hypnotic song. They must get sick of performing it, though.
  • Jim from North Billerica, MaI saw them perform this live during their "Touch" tour in 1984 and all I can say is, what a performance! Annie Lennox has such an amazing voice that it almost became a surrealistic moment. I still remember it like it was yesterday.
  • Rafael from Paris, FranceThis song is the proof that music don't have to be complicated to be really beautiful.
