Stan Bush - Southern Rain

{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
