You have watched the storm clouds roll
Past the lighthouse and the shore
Beyond the breakers they do go
Where they'll end up I don't know
And when this weather finally breaks
I wanna feel the sun upon my face
Although many things will change
That is one which stays the same
CHORUS
And all the tears I've cried
If I can make it there, I'll see you on the other side
All I never learned
Cause I'm a thousand miles from Atlanta
Beneath a thousand pounds of hurt
