Rain On Me

We never need forgiveness

Left home at 17

Raised up on hate

To a life that's second rate

I've seen that look before

Behind some closin door

Could be delivered,

Just won't be denied

Too much a child

Confident and wild

Nobody taught you how to live

What to keep and what to give

And now she talks to strangers

They bring her flowers for her hair

And every night you count on me

To peel you off the walls

Oh then you smile and watch me lose control

Rain on me

Oh rain down on me

Rain on me, yay

I used to think I knew

What I was waiting for

I don't think that anymore.

Didn't know what to bring you

Don't seem to need too much at all

No pearls and chains

And nobody's sad refrains

Every time I wonder why

I look back to the kindness in your eyes

Oh and now she talks to strangers

They bring her flowers for her hair

And every night you count on me

To get you out the door

Oh and then you smile and watch me lose control

I used to think I knew

What I Was fighting for

I don't think that anymore
