	Story Behind the Song I wrote this in early 2002 as I reflected over the loss of my mother when I was growing up. While loosely based upon real life, I was trying to paint a picture from multiple views. Lyrics Dusty roads and burned out fields, and no one had a lot In the summer of '83 the sun burned hot Dirty dishes, forgotten chores, facts that slipped her mind He couldn't tell quite so well and he never had the time Rain came down And then the rain came down, down, down Scare and lonely when the fog rolled in, she prayed that it would clear Hospitals and one-way rides, she never reappeared He drove that night through the blinding rain, they had to let him go Lost inside, lightning flashed, he never felt the blow Rain came down And then the rain came down, down, down, down, down Everyone 'll get what’s coming too them, some will get too much Me I'm waiting for my turn Everyone in the little town knew, they didn’t know what to say They tried to smile in church that day, everybody's lost their share Riding home the Common was dark, the path it was well worn All the houses were buttoned up, waiting on another storm Rain came down And then the rain came down, down, down, down, down
