- Verse:
- Buds will soon be flowers, Birds
will sing of Spring,
- Now's the time when love
should bloom for me.
In my lonely hours, Lifes an empty thing,
Clouds appear where skies of blue should be.

- Chorus:
- It looks like rain in Cherry
Blossom Lane,
- The sunshine of your smile's
no longer there.
- It looks like rain in Cherry
Blossom Lane,
- Your golden voice no longer
fills the air.
- The rippling notes have
left the old mill stream.
- There's nothing left for
me but just a dream.
- There'd be no rain in Cherry
Blossom Lane,
- If you were there to tell
me that you care.
