Lyrics:

Like a deer in headlights
I stood frozen in my tracks
And the weight of the news, it nearly broke my back
It was late September
I remember oh so well
Put a rose in the bible
And placed it upon 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, a pocket full of dreams
The future was Friday night
And we would hang out down by the riverbend
Singing our favorite songs
Laughing and drinking, smokin’ and smiling
Now those days are gone

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 now know for sure

Like a deer in headlights
I stood frozen in my tracks
And the weight of you not here nearly broke my back
And my tears they fell like a monsoon
Underneath the cold fall moon
And somehow God put his hands on your shoulders way too, way too soon

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 now know for sure

Kid you are thinking and sounding like you would if you were 50. Think back and tears abound about things that happened and nothing we can do about it. Since we can't change it, all we can do is grow from it. Keep rockin. Luv it.
