When It Rains
Like a deer in the headlights, I stood frozen in my tracksAnd the weight of the news, It nearly broke my backIt was late september, and I remember oh so wellI put a rose in the bible and placed it on my shelf
Now when it rains, it poursWish I didnt know now the things I never knew beforeNow when it rains, it poursWish I didnt know now the things I never knew before
Back then when we were 17Time was on our sideHoles in our jeans and a pocket full of dreamsThe future was Friday nightAnd we would hangout down by the riverbendSinging our favorite songsLaughin and drinkin, smokin and smilinNow those days are gone
Now when it rains, it poursWish I didnt know now the things I never knew beforeNow when it rains, it poursWish I didnt know now the things I know for shore
Like a deer in the headlights, I stood frozen in my tracksAnd the weight of you not here nearly broke my backAnd the tears they fell like a monsoonUnderneath the cold fall moonSomehow God put his hands on yur shouldersWay too, way too soon
Now when it rains, it poursWish I didnt know now the things I never knew beforeNow when it rains, it poursWish I didnt know nowNo I didnt know nowWhat I knew before
