| It’s coming down
|
| They say this is the storm of centuries
|
| Come together, help each other please
|
| And take cover, find shelter
|
| The camera’s off
|
| No one will see my act of charity
|
| I’ll share the awning
|
| But what’s in it for me, well?
|
| (Take cover, find shelter)
|
| Hey! |
| Mothers in the rain
|
| Do you think they’re keeping score
|
| Or doing it for the fame?
|
| These mothers in the rain
|
| They’re just trying to keep their babies warm
|
| Me, who I am when no one’s watching me
|
| Isn’t always who I want to be (Take cover, find shelter)
|
| And you, the rain is soaking
|
| Through your baby’s shoes
|
| So I’ll do anything you ask me to
|
| As long as there is proof that I can claim
|
| And attach it to my name
|
| Mothers in the rain
|
| Do you think they’re keeping score
|
| Or doing it for the fame?
|
| These mothers in the rain
|
| They’re just trying to keep their babies warm
|
| I don’t expect the world to congratulate me
|
| But I need something
|
| I don’t expect the gods to see every deed
|
| But I need something
|
| I want everyone to see my work and love me
|
| I expect the rules to bend a little
|
| And even in rain I want something to gain
|
| Expecting, I’m expecting
|
| Hey! |
| Mothers in the rain
|
| Do you think they’re keeping score
|
| Or doing it for the fame?
|
| These mothers in the rain
|
| They’re just trying to keep their babies warm
|
| Take cover, find shelter |
