Paroles
1. This is the way sunshine comes down,
Sweetly, sweetly falling,
So it chases the clouds away,
So it wakes the beautiful day,
This is the way sunshine comes down,
Sweetly, sweetly falling.
2. This is the way the clouds come down,
Darkly, darkly falling,
So it covers the shining blue,
Till no ray can glisten through,
This is the way the clouds come down,
Darkly, darkly falling.
3. This is the way the rain comes down,
Swiftly, swiftly falling,
Thus comes down the welcome rain
Over the field and hill and plain.
This is the way the rain comes down,
Swiftly, swiftly falling.
4. This is the way the rainbow comes down,
Brightly, brightly falling,
So it reaches across the sky
Making fair the heavens on high.
This is the way the rainbow comes down,
Brightly, brightly falling.
5. This is the way the hail comes down
Loudly, loudly falling,
So it flies beneath the cloud
Swift and strong and wild and loud,
This is the way the hail comes down
Loudly, loudly falling.
6. This is the way the frost comes down,
Slyly, slyly falling,
So it spreads all through the night,
Shining cold and pure and white.
This is the way the frost comes down,
Slyly, slyly falling.
7. This is the way the leaves come down,
Gently, gently falling,
In gold and brown and crimson dressed,
Rocked by the wind, they lies at rest,
This is the way the leaves come down,
Gently, gently falling.
8. This is the way the snow comes down,
Softly, softly falling,
So the cloud drops snow like wool,
Fair and white and beautiful,
This is the way the snow comes down,
Softly, softly falling.
