[Verse 1]
There's a place deep inside of me
Where I go when the world gets too much
The challenge I can chase away
Matters from another day
Living
Lately I don't know who I am no more
Lost when I look at my life
Chasing things I don't need
I see the man I wanna be
Slipping away
[Chorus]
I can hear the thunder
Call me back from where I came
There's a part of me still there walking down that country lane
If I could go back would it ever be the same?
Closest that I been to heaven is standing in the southern rain
[Bridge]
Bedford boy walks along the river
Feels a breeze and yellow rain drops on his face
I can go there in my mind
When I wanna leave behind this foolish race
[Chorus]
I can hear the thunder
Call me back from where I came
There's a part of me still there walking down that country lane
If I could go back would it ever be the same?
Closest that I been to heaven is standing in the southern rain
[Chorus]
I can hear the thunder
Call me back from where I came
There's a part of me still there walking down that country lane
If I could go back would it ever be the same?
Closest that I been to heaven is standing in the southern rain
[Outro]
If I've ever been to heaven, it's been in the southern rain
