Lyrics to Rain On Me by Ashanti

(Intro: Harmony)
Mmm-mmm-mmm,
Mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm,
Mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm…
Mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm,
Mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm,
Mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm
Mmm-mmm…

(Verse 1)
I'm lookin' in the mirror at this woman down and out.
She's internally dyin' and knew this was not what love's about.
I-I-I don't wanna be this woman the second time around,
‘Cause I'm wakin' up screamin', no longer believe
That I'm gonna be around, yeah.

(Bridge)
Over and over I tried (you know),
And over and over you lied (ohh-hoo-ohh-ohh),
And over and over I cried, yeah (over, yeah, yeah),

(Bridge)
And over and over I tried (yeah, yeah, yeah),
And over and over you lied (you lied),
And over and over I cried, yeah.
I don't know why…

(Harmony)
Oooh…oooh…ooh…ooh…ooh…oh…

(Chorus)
Rain on me.
Lord, won't you take this pain from me?
I don't wanna live, I don't wanna breathe, ‘till ya just,
Rain on me.
Lord, won't take this pain from me?
I don't wanna live, I don't wanna breathe, baby.

(Verse 2)
See, I don't want to hold my pillow late at night no more.
I'm tossin' and turnin' and thinkin' ‘bout burnin' down these walls.
I-I don't wanna fuel this fire no more, no more, no more.
See, I made up my mind, ‘cause I've wasted my time,
Ain't nothin' here to keep me warm, yeah.

(Bridge)
And over and over I tried (you know),
And over and over you lied (ohh, yeah),
And over and over I cried, yeah (over and over, I don't know why).

(Bridge)
And over and over I tried (yeah, yeah, yeah),
And over and over you lied (yeah, yeah, yeah),
And over and over I cried, yeah (I cried, I cried, I cried, I cried, I cried).

(Harmony)
Ohhh…ohhh…ohh…ohh…ohh…

(Chorus)
Rain on me.
Lord, won't you take this pain from me?
I don't wanna live, I don't wanna breathe, ‘till ya just,
Rain on me.
Lord, won't take this pain from me?
I don't wanna live, I don't wanna breathe, baby.

(Verse 3)
I'm so tired of the rain (in my life),
And I'm so tired of the strain (and I ain't gonna lie),
‘Cause, sometimes I can't (sleep at night and),
This here, it just (don't seem right and),
Sometimes, I just (wonder why I),
Almost let my (life go by).

(Vamp)
Sometimes I can't (sleep at night and),
This here it just (don't seem right and),
Sometimes, I just (wonder why I),
Almost let my (life go by).

(Harmony)
Oooh…oooh…ooh…ooh…oh…oh…oh…ohhh…

(Chorus)
Rain on me.
Lord, won't you take this pain from me?
I don't wanna live, I don't wanna breathe, ‘till ya just,
Rain on me.
Lord, won't take this pain from me?
Said I don't wanna live, I don't wanna breathe, baby.


(Chorus)
Rain on me.
Lord, won't you take this pain from me?
I don't wanna live, I don't wanna breathe, ‘till ya just,
Rain on me.
Lord, won't take this pain from me?
And I don't wanna live, I don't wanna breathe, baby.

(Outro: Harmony)
Ooh…la-la, no, la-la, no…
Aaah, no…mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm…
La-la, la-la, no, no, no, no, no, no…
Ooh, no…
Mmm-mmm-mmm…mmm-mmm-mmm, no…
Hmmm-mmm, mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm…
