| Like a deer in the headlights, I stood frozen in my tracks
|
| And the weight of the news, It nearly broke my back
|
| It was late september, and I remember oh so well
|
| I put a rose in the bible and placed it on my shelf
|
| Now when it rains, it pours
|
| Wish I didnt know now the things I never knew before
|
| Now when it rains, it pours
|
| Wish I didnt know now the things I never knew before
|
| Back then when we were 17
|
| Time was on our side
|
| Holes in our jeans and a pocket full of dreams
|
| The future was Friday night
|
| And we would hangout down by the riverbend
|
| Singing our favorite songs
|
| Laughin and drinkin, smokin and smilin
|
| Now those days are gone
|
| Now when it rains, it pours
|
| Wish I didnt know now the things I never knew before
|
| Now when it rains, it pours
|
| Wish I didnt know now the things I know for shore
|
| Like a deer in the headlights, I stood frozen in my tracks
|
| And the weight of you not here nearly broke my back
|
| And the tears they fell like a monsoon
|
| Underneath the cold fall moon
|
| Somehow God put his hands on yur shoulders
|
| Way too, way too soon
|
| Now when it rains, it pours
|
| Wish I didnt know now the things I never knew before
|
| Now when it rains, it pours
|
| Wish I didnt know now
|
| No I didnt know now
|
| What I knew before |
