Might Not Miss You At All

Songtext

[Verse 1] Found a dime-store map in the glovebox, Coffee ring beside the county line, Your old blue scarf on the passenger seat, Still smells like cedar and turpentine. The forecast says the river is rising, The mill road's closed till half past ten, I told myself I’d wait for morning, Then I heard that freight roll again. [Chorus] Who stopped the rain from falling? Who turned the porch boards dry? I was waiting on a letter, You were waving from the other side. Now the clouds are breaking open, And the corn is standing tall, If the sun comes through this window, I might not miss you at all. [Verse 2] Saw your name at the diner counter, Written soft in a paper cup, Martha said you took the highway west, With a borrowed coat and a busted-up truck. There’s a red taillight past the grain bins, There’s a song on the radio low, I could chase you down through three counties, But I’ve got somewhere else to go. [Chorus] Who stopped the rain from falling? Who turned the porch boards dry? I was waiting on a letter, You were waving from the other side. Now the clouds are breaking open, And the corn is standing tall, If the sun comes through this window, I might not miss you at all. [Bridge] Let the gutters spill over, Let the old creek find the lane, Some roads disappear in weather, Some hearts do better that way. [Final Chorus] Who stopped the rain from falling? Who turned the porch boards dry? I was waiting on a letter, You were waving from the other side. Now the clouds are breaking open, And the corn is standing tall, If the sun comes through this window, I might not miss you at all. [Outro] No, I might not miss you at all.
