[Chorus] Rain eyes that blur the rays of sunshine When all you see is seen through tears The whole world seems as though its crying Rain eyes, thats how my world appears One sunny day in Lousiana The clouds began to hover low And darkness came in early evening And brought a rain that would not go [Verse 1] Is just a child when mother told me It seems your fathers gone away Its not his fault, my child, forgive him I should have known he would not stay Youre so much like him and he loves you But now his loves for only you Although he forced himself to leave you Forgiving me he could not do [Chorus] Rain eyes that cloud the hope of sunshine When everything is seen through tears The whole world seems as though its crying Rain eyes, thats how my world appears It rains all evening into nighttime Then rains all night and through the day My mothers eyes are weak from crying Forgive her, she just lost her way [Chorus] Since youve been gone her eyes have clouded And darkness reigns her weary view Shed see again from your returning That God knows shes in love with you One rainy day in Louisiana The trade winds blew the clouds away A mother heard her boy shout, Father My God, tis him, hes come to stay
