It is a beautiful piece of music from the album "Earthsongs" by a band called Secret Garden.
The first CD I have from them is called "Once in a Red Moon" (published in 2002). It has famous pieces like You Raise Me Up, The Gates of Dawn, and Green Waves.
I later borrowed all the CDs the library had and made a collection of my own of their music.
They have another song called Half a World Away It has the same melody as the instrumental piece Sometimes When It Rains (Video attached to this entry).
YouTube scenes of the song Half a World Away are from the romantic movie "The Time Traveler's Wife".
The lyrics are very moving as well.
You're half a world away, standing next to me It seems that every day, I'm losing you almost invisibly Though you are near, I can't reach that far Across to where you are and so you stay
Just half a world away
And I would cross the universe for you What good would it do if you weren't even there? Till you return and until your way is clear
I will be here, not half a world away
You're half a world away and no one is to blame If love outlives its day and turns into an ember from a flame I love you as before till words will be no more
Till I can't find a way to where you stay Just half a world away
