Lyrics

THE STORM
Words & Music by John Ross

Jesus lives on the edge of town
I tried to look him up but couldn't track him down
I tried so hard but it's all in vain
Cause it's coming down just like a hurricane

Calling out to insanity
Won't you take a look of what's inside for me
Looking back I can't complain
Cause it was just a little rain and I say now

Yeah yeah search a little longer
Yeah yeah try a little harder, yeah yeah yeah

Yeah yeah yeah everything is all right
Yeah if you can hold on tight
Yeah yeah yeah

All around me is an endless sea
Of everything that I might have been
What's the use in looking back
When your train is riding on a one way track

Crawling up to reality
The storm has always been inside of me
Looking back I can't complain
It was still just a little rain and I say now

Yeah yeah search a little longer
Yeah yeah try a little harder, yeah yeah yeah

Yeah yeah yeah everything is all right
Yeah if you can hold on tight
Yeah yeah yeah

Because it's all a little harder
A little longer then you
It's got more power
It's a little louder then you

I said it's all a little harder, a little longer than you

I said it's all a little harder
A little longer then you
It's got more power
A little louder then you

Jesus lives on the edge of town
I tried to look him up I couldn't track him down
I looked so hard but it's all in vain
Cause it was just a little rain
