It's Just a Storm

Bret Cutrer

[Verse 1]

Some days the sun don't shine,
And the clouds roll in without a sign.
You can feel the thunder in your soul,
Like the whole world's spinning out of control.

You try to run, you try to hide,
From the rain that's falling deep inside.
But there's one thing I've come to know,
Even the strongest winds eventually slow.

[Chorus]

It's just a storm, let it roll on through,
It ain't the end of the world for you.
Storms don't last, they do what they do,
Then pass right on through.

Let the rain fall, let the wind blow,
There's a little more strength in you than you know.
The sky may darken, but the sun's still warm,
Hold on, my friend, it's just a storm.

[Verse 2]

I've seen the lightning, I've felt the rain,
I've walked through seasons filled with pain.
Had days I thought I'd lost my way,
But here I stand to see another day.

And looking back at where I've been,
I'd walk through some of those storms again.
'Cause what I thought would tear me down,
Was teaching me to stand my ground.

[Chorus]

It's just a storm, let it roll on through,
It ain't the end of the world for you.
Storms don't last, they do what they do,
Then pass right on through.

Let the rain fall, let the wind blow,
There's a little more strength in you than you know.
The sky may darken, but the sun's still warm,
Hold on, my friend, it's just a storm.

[Bridge – Soft, Reflective]

You can't stop the rain from falling,
Can't tell the thunder when to cease.
But you can find a little stillness,
And hold on to your peace.

Not every cloud brings destruction,
Not every wind comes to break.
Sometimes the rain that soaks the ground,
Is what makes the flowers wake.

[Final Chorus – Building Emotion]

It's just a storm, let it roll on through,
There's still a brighter day waiting for you.
Storms don't last, they do what they do,
Then pass right on through.

So let the rain fall, let the wind blow,
Some things in life you've just gotta let go.
And when the clouds part, you'll see once more,
The sun was shining behind that storm.

[Outro – Gentle, Almost Spoken]

Storms don't last...
They do what they do...
Then pass right on through.

And so will this one, too.
