When The Sun Comes Out
Ella Fitzgerald · Other Songs - Ella Fitzgerald
And that rain stops beatin'
On my window pane
When the sun comes out
There'll be bluebirds
'Round my door
Singin' like they did before
That ol' storm broke out
And my man walked off
And left me in the rain
Though he's gone I doubt
If he'll stay away for good
I'd stop livin' if he should
Love is funny, it's not always
Peaches, cream and honey
Just when everything looked
Bright and sunny
Suddenly the cyclone came
I'll never be the same
'Til that sun comes out
And the rain stops beatin'
On my window pane
If my heart holds out
Let it rain and let it pour
It may not be long before
There's a knockin' at my door
Then you'll know
The one I love walked in
When the sun comes out
Love is funny, it's not always
Peaches, cream and honey
Just when everything looked
Bright and sunny
Suddenly the cyclone came
I'll never be the same
'Til that sun comes out
And the rain stops beatin'
Beatin' on my window pane
If my heart holds out
Let it rain and let it pour
It may not be long before
There's a knockin' at my door
Then you'll know
The one I love walked in
When the sun comes out
