Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/1993107
Verse 1
When the rain comes down, I watch it fall onto leaves of Lincoln green
And the prince and princess make their call, on the timeless king and queen, playing:

Chorus
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la

Verse 2
In a carriage ride at the palace gate, see the footman help him down
And the queen looks sad you’re rather late, and the king removes his crown, saying:

Chorus
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la

Bridge
See the rain fall, see the rain fall
Everybody run for shelter
See the rain fall, see the rain fall
King and queen and son and daughter
Watch them how they play with water

Chorus
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la

Verse 3
Now its getting dark and the candles light, through the crystal colored glass
In the bank where to all they dress in white, and a minstrel wanders past, playing:

Chorus
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la

Verse 4
When the rain comes down, I watch it fall onto leaves of Lincoln green
And the prince and princess make their call, on the timeless king and queen, playing:

Chorus
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la

Bridge
See the rain fall, see the rain fall
Everybody run for shelter
See the rain fall, see the rain fall
King and queen and son and daughter
Watch them how they play with water

Chorus/Outro
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
