Lyrics

Listen to the rain, April’s here again! (hum) (hum) —
Mem’ries tapping upon my window pane.

Chorus
It was raining, I remember,
I remember the crazy way we met.
Lost my heart and my head and a brand new umbrella,
I remember, I remember.
Helter skelter, we found shelter,
I remember a midnight luncheonette.
You had coffee and rolls, I had coffee and romance,
I remember, I remember.
The song the radio was playing;
The pitter and patter as rain drops fall;
The foolish things that we were saying,
My sentimental heart can still recall.
Another April, a new September,
Still I find the old mem’ries linger yet.
For when I hear the rain, hear the rain on my window,
I remember, I remember
All the little things I can’t forget.
