  • 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 bad times
    She will always, always be right there

    Sunny days, everybody loves them
    Tell me baby can you stand the rain?
    Storms will come
    This we know for sure (This we know for sure)
    Can you stand the rain?

    Love unconditional, I'm not asking just of you
    And girl to make it last
    I'll do whatever needs to be done

    But I need somebody who will stand by me
    When it's tough she won't run
    She will always, be right there for me

    Sunny days, everybody loves them, tell me, baby
    Can you stand the rain? (Can you stand it?)
    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? (Can you stand the rain?)

    Can you stand the rain
    (Can you stand the rain?)
    (No pressure, no pressure from me, baby)
    This we know for sure
    Can you stand the rain ('Cause I want you, and I need you, and I love you, girl)
    (Tell me, baby)
    Can you stand the rain
    (Will you be there for me?)

    (Come on, baby, let's go get wet)

    Can you stand the rain
    (Can you stand the rain?)
    Can you stand the rain
    (Will you be there, girl?)
    Can you stand the rain
    (Storms will come for sure)
    Can you stand the rain
    (Can you stand the rain?)
    Can you stand the rain
    (This we know for sure)
    Can you stand the rain
    Can you stand the rain
    (This we know for sure)
    Can you stand the rain
    Can you stand the rain
    (This we know for sure)
    Can you stand the rain
    Can you stand the rain

    Yeah, it's gonna but I know, I know I'll be right there
