Rain Down On Me Lyrics

You never need forgiveness
Left home at seventeen
Confident and wild
So much a child
Nobody taught you how to live
What to keep and what to give
You couldn't be delivered

Raised on hate
You would not be denied
To a life that's second rate
Behind some closing door
I've seen that look before
Who bring her flowers for her hair

Now she talks to strangers
But every night you call on me
Then you smile
To get you out the door
And watch me lose control

You rain on me
I used to think I knew
Rain down on me
Rain down on me
What I was waiting for
I don't think that anymore

You didn't seem to need too much at all
I never knew what to bring you
No pearls or chains
And nobody's sad refrains
I think back to the kindness in your eyes
Every time I wonder why

Now everybody wants you
But every night you call on me
Then you smile
Bring you flowers for your hair
To peel you off the wall

And I just lose control
You rain on me
Rain down on me
I used to think I knew
Rain down on me
What I was fighting for
I don't think that anymore
