Intro: Don't it always seem to hit you Right when you feel you can lay back easy Those times are hard to come by Sittin' still with nothin' on your mind Memories are friends that you had Once more you'll have to leave again to find them It seems like nothing till you're back home You took your chances with time Well I can see you sitting easy Rocking on your porch back and forth Those clouds outside your doorway are moving dark and moving fast But keep on rockin' Don't the rain make you lazy As long as it keeps raining I'll be with you No I won't be leaving, no I won't be leaving But when the sun starts to shinin' I'll be on my way My past keeps a-comin' back on me You don't understand it But I know that I didn't plan it I've taken my rest It's time to carry out the news I said front page, back page Have I got news for you If I can only tell you what I feel now It's been so long inside of me All the years I've been trying Trying just to be myself with someone else Ain't no two ways about it And it's so clear, so clear to me That if we really need it I'll count on you and you can count on me
