Have You Ever Seen the Rain

by Antonio Pantano

1.
Someone told me long ago There's a calm before the storm I know, it's been comin' for some time When it's over, so they say It'll rain a sunny day I know, shinin' down like water I want to know, have you ever seen the rain? I want to know, have you ever seen the rain? Comin' down on a sunny day Yesterday, and days before Sun is cold and rain is hard I know, been that way for all my time 'Til forever, on it goes Through the circle, fast and slow I know, it can't stop, I wonder I want to know, have you ever seen the rain? I want to know, have you ever seen the rain? Comin' down on a sunny day Yeah! I want to know, have you ever seen the rain? I want to know, have you ever seen the rain? Comin' down on a sunny day

about

This song is the only one that gives me joy and sadness at the same time for one simple reason, sometimes people who struggle with something inside tends to hide their real feelings, that is why we should never underestimate the importance of depression in those who suffer from it. They probably fake a smile when they just feeling dying inside, just like the rain, that falls on a sunny day.
That's what this song is all about and I tried to give you a message of hope in this difficult moment of our lives with a video that I also made where I try to explain with images that sometimes we can start feeling a little bit better by enjoying just the simple things in life, like walking on the beach alone or feeling the contact (and energy) with mother earth and its creatures, interact and connect the power from its roots to ourselves.
Not only was this song a staple of a time in our history, but in todays weird world, it has become prophetic. True music never dies, it just keeps telling a story about someone's situation at that very moment, somewhere in time.
