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 To, Way To 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
