We never need forgiveness |
|
Left home at seventeen |
|
Raised up on hate to life that's second rate |
|
I've seen that look before |
|
Behind some closing door |
|
You couldn't 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 |
|
Oh, now she talks to strangers |
|
Who bring her flowers for her hair |
|
But every night you count on me |
|
To get you out the door |
|
Oh, then you smile and watch me lose control |
|
You rain on me |
|
Oh, rain down on me |
|
Oh, rain down on me, yeah |
|
I used to think, |
|
I knewWhat |
|
I was waiting for |
|
I don't think that anymore |
|
I didn't know what to bring you |
|
You don't seem to need too much at all |
|
No pearls or chains and nobody's sad refrains |
|
Every time |
|
I wonder why |
|
I think back to the kindness in your eyes |
|
Now everybody wants you |
|
Bring you flowers for your hair |
|
But every night you count on me |
|
To peel you off the wall |
|
Oh, then you smile and watch me lose control |
|
You rain on me |
|
Oh, rain down on me |
|
Oh, rain down on me, hey |
|
I used to think |
|
I knewWhat |
|
I was fighting for |
|
I don't think that anymore |
