Now when it rains, it pours....


When It Rains
Kid Rock

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 didn't know now the things I never knew before 
Now when it rains, it pours 
Wish I didn't 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 river bend 
Singing our favorite songs 
Laughing and drinking, smoking and smiling 
Now those days are gone 

Now when it rains, it pours 
Wish I didn't know now the things I never knew before 
Now when it rains, it pours 
Wish I didn't 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 your shoulders 
Way too, way too soon 

Now when it rains, it pours 
Wish I didn't know now the things I never knew before 
Now when it rains, it pours 
Wish I didn't know now 
No I didn't know now 
What I knew before
