"I can't stand the rain 'gainst my windowBringing back sweet memoriesIcan't stand the rain 'gainst my window'Cause he's not here with me--Ann Peebles, "I Can't Stand the Rain"
Rainy Night in Portland, by Waddy Smith--can't find the lyrics on the web...great song though
"You were mine but suddenly it's changed Wish that I... could find a way to stop the rain"--Avg White Band, "Stop the Rain"
"Here comes the rain againFalling on my head like a memoryFalling on my head like a new emotion

"...
"Walked in the corner of the roomA junk yard fool with eyes of gloomI asked him time againTake me in and dry the rainTake me in and dry the rainTake me in and dry the rainTake me in and dry the rain the rainThe rain the rain the rain now..."
Also, frighteningly enough, I found this: Songs About Rain With Links to Lyrics [lacarte.org].

It’s been raining all week in Washington DC and the public radio station WPFW is playing Love Unlimited “Walkin in the Rain with the One I Love”.
I wanna hear “In the Rain” soul song
