I was putting on my raincoat
When I saw myself again
I was thinking about how I felt
When you fooled my heart again
When your love's not a shelter
And you get caught in the rain
You go looking for a lover
To make you feel like a boy againUsing love as a weapon
Better sharpen up your aim
You send it out as an arrow
But it soon comes back again
Said you know what you're doing
But you don't really have a plan
And now you're waiting on your lover
When you already got a man
Looking at your lover
Gonna make yourself a freedom
Looking at your lover
Gonna paint yourself a highway
Looking at your lover
And he's out there in the rain
Looking at your lover
Gonna make myself
Gonna make myself againWasn't like I was looking
Wasn't like I had it planned
But sometimes you get lucky
And it falls right in your hands
So I took it to my sister
Cause I knew she'd understand,
She said "You know I'm just happy
To see you so alive again"
Gonna walk with conviction
Gonna be just like a man
Gonna take what I want to
Until I feel like a boy again
Then I stop and I look
And I see your face
And I tell myself that
I won't ever be the sameLooking at your lover
Gonna make yourself a freedom
Looking at your lover
Gonna paint yourself a highway
Looking at your lover
And he's out there in the rain
Looking at your lover
Gonna make myself
Gonna make myself againStop!
Here we go!
When you're all worked up
And you got no one to blame
When you're all alone
And crying in the rain
Just remember your greatest gift is to dance
Just remember your greatest gift is to dance
So you take it back again to the side
Swing it to the right
Then you take it back again down lower
Than you've ever been before
You push your man to the side
Fall down to the floor
You pick yourself back up again
And you walk right through the doorLooking at your lover
Gonna make yourself a freedom
Looking at your lover
Gonna paint yourself a highway
Looking at your lover
And he's out there in the rain
Looking at your lover
Gonna make myself
Gonna make myself againLooking at your lover
And he's out there in the rain...
Gonna walk alone...
Gonna work it out...
