No Rain, No Flowers

I thought I grew out of the Midwest At least that's what I said When I left her standing in the doorway Calling after to me when I drove off to old Tennessee You were good to me When we moved differently It took a toll on things I'm counting the rooftops on the way home Watching the rain clouds set the stage Waiting for thunder Listen for my mother It's no rain no flowers No rain no flowers Try to settle down I don't want to settle now Maybe if I'm a second older I'll know exactly where to go Cause I need a change of pace Bend me before I break If I keep praying for an answer It may not help me But it can't hurt Rooftops on the way home Watching the rain clouds set the stage Waiting for thunder I'm not going under Cause it's no rain no flowers No Rain No Flowers It's no rain no flowers Everything is backwards Right always comes after I'm already wrong It's no rain no flowers No rain no... No rain no... No rain no flowers
