Blue Rodeo - Rose Coloured Glasses Lyrics

We never need forgivenessLeft home at 17Raised up on hateTo a life that's second rateI've seen that look beforeBehind some closin doorCould be delivered,Just won't be deniedToo much a childConfident and wildNobody taught you how to liveWhat to keep and what to giveAnd now she talks to strangersThey bring her flowers for her hairAnd every night you count on meTo peel you off the wallsOh then you smile and watch me lose controlChorus:Rain on meOh rain down on meRain on me, yayI used to think I knewWhat I was waiting forI don't think that anymore.Didn't know what to bring youDon't seem to need too much at allNo pearls and chainsAnd nobody's sad refrainsEvery time I wonder whyI look back to the kindness in your eyesOh and now she talks to strangersThey bring her flowers for her hairAnd every night you count on meTo get you out the doorOh and then you smile and watch me lose controlChorusI used to think I knewWhat I Was fighting forI don't think that anymore....
