Come in From the RainCheryl Lynn

Songwriter: Melissa Manchester Carole Sager

Producer: David Paich Marty Paich

Well, hello there, good old friend of mine
You've been reaching for yourself for such a long time
There's so much to say
No need to explain
Just an open door for you to come in from the rain

It's a long road when you're on your own
And someone like you will always choose the long way home
There's no right or wrong
I'm not here to blame
I just want to be the one who keeps you from the rain, from the rain

And it looks like sunny skies
Now that I know you're all right
Time has left us older and wiser
I know I am

And it's good to know my best friend has come home again
'Cause I think of us like on old cliché
But it doesn't matter, 'cause I love you any way

Come in from the rain
Come in from the rain

Cheryl Lynn

Cheryl Lynn (born Lynda Cheryl Smith; March 11, 1957) is an American singer. She is best known for her songs during the late 1970s through the mid-1980s, including the 1978 R&B/disco song “Got to Be Real”. Lynn’s singing career began with her church choir when she was a girl. Her professional singing career started in 1976 when she obtained a job as a backing vocalist for the national touring company of the musical drama The Wiz. Eventually she obtained the role of Evillene, the Wicked Witch of the West, during the six-month national tour.

Prior to her appearance in The Wiz, Lynn taped an episode of The Gong Show during early 1976. She scored a perfect 30 singing Joe Cocker’s “You Are So Beautiful”; a previous act (a singing juggler) had also scored 30, and in the audience applause tie-break the juggler was deemed the winner. After the episode was broadcast, during the fall of 1976, record industry executives were interested in contracting her.
