"When It Does" lyrics

"When It Does"

If this world should break you, I'll pick your pieces up
Wherever the road takes you, I'll be there in the dust
The stars fade to nothing, your dreams start to rust
Girl, I pray it doesn't, I pray it doesn't

But when it does, and you feel like heaven's falling
When it does, you don't know who to trust
I can't stop your river rising
Or promise you the water won't get rough
But I'll be right here beside you when it does

I know what it's like to cry out when all you got is prayer
And all you hear is silence, makes you wonder if God was ever there
And I can feel your faith disappear into the air
Child, I hope it doesn't, I pray it doesn't

But when it does, and you feel like heaven's falling
When it does, and you don't know who to trust
I can't stop your river rising
Or promise you the water won't get rough
But I'll be right here beside you when it does

Ain't no wrong we can't right
No fight we can't fight
The truth is, child, trouble's gonna come

And when it does, and you feel like heaven's falling
And when it does, and you don't know who to trust
And I can't stop your river rising
Or promise you the water won't get rough
I wish I could stop the world from beating you up
But I'll be right here beside you when it does
