Let It Rain

I can be so selfish, sad and moody I can hear my mama talking to me She said, 'Girl, you need to change your attitude' I come home tired and I'm rude to you And I've got a little problem with 'I'm sorry' I say go to hell and in a hurry And if that hurts, I get a little mad at you The truth we know I'm a little jealous too Well, if tears like rain have magic powers Here they come again, them midnight showers Let it rain tonight, purify like holy water When I pray tonight, gonna say how much I want her Start it again baby baby oh I wanna start again And take it way back when Do you remember those sweet talks early morning? Looking and I turn into the dawning If this works I'll thank the Lord with gratitude I tell you I'd do all I got to do But if tears like rain have magic powers Here they come again, them midnight showers Let it rain tonight, purify like holy water Gonna pray tonight, gonna say how much I want her Start it again, baby baby ooh I wanna start again Take it way back when, well, well, yeah, yeah, come on Let it rain, water wait I'm walkin' Wash me up and wash me down Gonna be good for me, oh let it rain No more turning, no more tossing Just like Christmas in the morning for you and me Let it rain tonight, purify like holy water When I pray tonight, gonna say how much I want her Start it again Take it way back when Let it rain, tell water to wait I'm walkin' Wash me up and wash me down, be good for me Let it rain, no more turning and tossing Just like Christmas in the morning for you and me Let it rain tonight, purify like holy water When I pray tonight --- Let It Rain - Al Jarreau, Patti Austin and George Benson
