Stop The RainEd Sheeran

Released: October 29, 2021

Songwriter: Ed Sheeran

[Verse 1]
Another human cloud to bring you down when you blew the last away
And bring out a poisoned tongue or plastic crown, but for me, they look the same
Sometimes, it can get all too much for me
And that's why the photograph gets burned, throw the match in gasoline, a-ayy

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Don't let the ones who hurt you see you cry
Tomorrow is another day

[Chorus]
You cannot stop the rain, no way
Holdin' an umbrella when the grey clouds come over again
Tryna find somethin' real, but it's not the game they play
Pretendin' that the weather is in your mind, you got no one to blame
But that's just the way I feel

[Post-Chorus]
You cannot stop the rain, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Cannot stop the rain, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 2]
Another "I, me, mine" to blur the lines between love and then heartbreak
Oh, it's a lonely life thinkin' you're right and always shiftin' blame
And every time it's gettin' more and more ugly
And that's why the photograph gets burned, throw the match in gasoline, a-ayy

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Don't let them tell you "Keep it all inside"
I know the winds have got to change

[Chorus]
You cannot stop the rain, no way
Holdin' an umbrella when the grey clouds come over again
Tryna find somethin' real, but it's not the game they play
Pretendin' that the weather is in your mind, you got no one to blame
But that's just the way I feel

[Post-Chorus]
You cannot stop the rain, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Cannot stop the rain, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Bridge]
And it seems like time
Can be so much more than a wake-up call, and live real life
Every day is a chance that we can start over, read my mind
There'll be ups and downs, but it won't change a thing between you and I
There's one thing I can't change

[Chorus]
You cannot stop the rain, no way
Holdin' an umbrella when the grey clouds come over again
Tryna find somethin' real, but it's not the game they play
Pretendin' that the weather is in your mind, you got no one to blame
But that's just the way I feel
You cannot stop the rain, no way
Holdin' an umbrella when the grey clouds come over again
Tryna find somethin' real, but it's not the game they play
Pretendin' that the weather is in your mind, you got no one to blame
But that's just the way I feel

[Post-Chorus]
You cannot stop the rain, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Cannot stop the rain, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Can't stop the rain, yeah, can't stop the rain, yeah (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Can't stop the rain, can't stop the rain (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Can't stop the rain (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
You know you can't stop the rain, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Ed Sheeran

Ed Sheeran is a singer/songwriter who was born in Halifax, England but was raised in Suffolk, England. He’s known for his energetic live shows, which involve him using a loop pedal and sometimes throwing some raps in for good measure.

Ed’s success story began with him playing music in older people’s homes. He first was picked up by a record producer when busking in the USA. He performed nearly a thousand gigs and street performances before getting the recognition he deserved. Unsigned projects such as Loose Change and Songs I Wrote with Amy relied on the production of long-term collaborator Jake Gosling and signaled the start of their hugely successful musical relationship. Soon he’d made countless industry friends.

Teaming up with some of the biggest names in UK grime – Wiley, Ghetts, Jme and more – he released the No. 5 Collaborations Project in January 2011, and it reached number 46 on the UK Singles Chart. One of the songs, “Little Lady” (feat. Mikill Pane), was a fan favourite, so Ed made a more radio-friendly solo version entitled “The A Team” and the rest is history. The song now has over a million sales in the UK and two million in the US.
