You never see it coming, it happens all of a sudden And when it finally hits you, it's too late He just sat there in the silence, on his own private island I wasn't ready for the storm about to break Yesterday, there was no trace of trouble Now he's given up more than I can takeHe said hold on tight, it's gonna be a heck of a night Especially when you hear what I've got to say And when he said, I don't love you The first tear broke through Now it's comin' down Like a Tennessee rainNobody showed me, nobody told me What to do when the story turned out wrong Or how a heart does its mending, without the perfect ending The one I always thought would come along He had his own ideas of where this love was going He wasn't leaving it up to the hands of fateHe just said hold on tight, it's gonna be a heck of a night Especially when you hear what I've got to say And when he said, I don't love you The first tear broke through Now it's comin' down Like a Tennessee rainHe said hold on tight, it's gonna be a heck of a night Especially when you hear what I've got to say And when he said, I don't love you The first tear broke through Now it's comin' down Like a Tennessee rainIt's comin' down harder than a Tennessee rain
