Rain Down Love
Freemasons Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Got change on my mind
I can't say it's alright
'Cause I need a cloudburst in my life
Thunder-showers
When love flowers
Baby, it's alright
No expectation, no demands
Just know my heart is in your hands
You got the power in control
Oh oh oh
Let it rain down love, heavenly storm
Just what I'm searching for
Let it rain down love
Can't touch the ground
Baby just let your love rain down
Make it just pour
Break it, let it storm
Shake me to my core
'Cause I need a hurricane for sure
No expectations, no demands
Just know my heart is in your hands
You got the power in control
Oh oh oh
Let it rain down love, heavenly storm
Just what I'm searching for
Let it rain down love
Can't touch the ground
Baby just let your love rain down
