[Verse 1: Sharon den Adel & Chris Jones]

The burning desire to live and roam free

It shines in the dark and it grows within me

You're holding my hand but you don't understand

So where I'm going you won't be in the end

I'm dreaming in colors of getting the chance

Dreaming of China, the perfect romance

In search of the door to open your mind

In search of the cure of mankind

[Pre-Chorus: Sharon den Adel & Chris Jones]

Help us, we're drowning

So closed up inside

[Chorus: Sharon den Adel & Chris Jones]

Why does it rain, rain, rain

Down on Utopia?

Why does it have to kill

The ideal of who we are?

Why does it rain, rain, rain

Down on Utopia?

How will the lights die down

Telling us who we are?

[Verse 2: Sharon den Adel, Chris Jones, Both]

I'm searching for answers not given for free

You're hurting inside, is there life within me?

You're holding my hand but you don't understand

You're taking the road all alone in the end

I'm dreaming in colors, no boundaries are there

I'm dreaming the dream we all seen to share

In search of the door to open your mind

In search of the cure of mankind

[Pre-Chorus: Sharon den Adel & Chris Jones]

Help us, we're drowning

So closed up inside

[Chorus: Sharon den Adel & Chris Jones]

Why does it rain, rain, rain

Down on Utopia?

Why does it have to kill

The ideal of who we are?

Why does it rain, rain, rain

Down on Utopia?

How will the lights die down

Telling us who we are?

[Bridge: Sharon den Adel]

Ooh

Ooh

Ooh

Ooh

[Chorus: Sharon den Adel & Chris Jones]

Why does it rain, rain, rain

Down on Utopia?

Why does it have to kill

The ideal of who we are?

Oh, why does it rain, rain, rain

Down on Utopia?

How will the lights die down

Telling us who we are?

[Outro: Sharon den Adel & Chris Jones]

Why does it rain?
