I know a girl with dreams that reach up to the moon
but when she's home tonight it's gonna rain inside her room
no one gives the time of day except to criticize
when day turns to night, something happens to her eyes
Momma doesn't need her, living in a nighttime rain, Home on the rage
Daddy never sees her, living in a nighttime rain, Home on the rage
At night the fights break out and things begin to fly
she runs and slams the door and tries hard not to cry
daddy's got a great escape, he's workin' all the time and momma over-compensates,
her love don't ever shine
Momma doesn't need her, living in a nighttime rain, Home on the rage
Daddy never sees her, living in a nighttime rain, Home on the rage
If they could give her love like the Lord above
everything would be all right
someone sees ya, hey little girl-
just believe, and it'll be all right
