[Intro] Whistle on the pane Whistle on the pane Rhythm in the rain Rhythm in the rain [Verse 1] What do you say, mother? Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain Telling me just what a fool I've been Tenor harmony enters (Whoa-ha!) How about you, father? Bass vocal (Doo-wacka-doo-doo) Is that what else you got? Vocalized bird-like squawks (Quack-quack-quack-quack) [Chorus] Tell me, tell me, tell me What do you say? Tell me, tell me, tell me When the rain won't stay Oh, I hear it now It says my name Tell me, tell me, tell me What do you say? [Verse 2] Boots by the doorway Hair on your coat from the storm I stood there quiet Trying to look less torn You said, come closer Like you knew my shame And the drops kept tapping Like they knew the same [Chorus] Tell me, tell me, tell me What do you say? Tell me, tell me, tell me When the rain won't stay Oh, I hear it now It says my name Tell me, tell me, tell me What do you say? [Bridge] Maybe I ran too fast Maybe I heard you wrong Maybe that fool in me Has been singing all along (Whoa-ha!) If you still remember If you still remain Call me through the window Call me through the rain [Final Chorus] Tell me, tell me, tell me What do you say? Tell me, tell me, tell me When the rain won't stay Oh, I hear it now It says my name Tell me, tell me, tell me What do you say? [Outro] Whistle on the pane Whistle on the pane Rhythmic vocal bass And vocal percussion fade out Whistle on the pane
