Man, have you ever just needed a song to grab you by the shoulders and say, “Hey, it’s gonna be okay”? That’s “Storms Never Last” for me. It’s not one of those flashy, in-your-face tracks that demands attention—it’s quieter, steadier, like a friend who shows up with a blanket when the world’s falling apart. I picture it as this warm, weathered voice cutting through the chaos, telling you that no matter how wild the thunder gets, it’s got an end. And isn’t that what we all crave sometimes? A little reminder that the rain doesn’t stick around forever?
What gets me about this song—and I’m just dreaming it up here—is how it feels like it’s lived a little. You can almost hear the creak of a porch swing in the melody, the kind of sound that makes you think of someone who’s seen a few hurricanes and still smiles. Maybe it’s got this rootsy vibe—think acoustic guitar strumming soft but sure, with lyrics that hit you right in the chest. Something like, “The wind can howl, but it’s just passing through,” you know? It’s simple, but it sticks with you, like a line you scribble in a notebook and find years later.
I imagine it’s the kind of song that sneaks up on you. Maybe you’re driving late at night, headlights cutting through a downpour, and it comes on—suddenly you’re not just hearing it, you’re feeling it. It’s hope wrapped in a melody, but not the cheesy kind. It’s real, raw, like someone’s telling you their story of climbing out of the muck and finding the sun again. And that’s what makes it special—it’s not about pretending the storm isn’t there; it’s about knowing it won’t win.
Don’t you love when a song feels like it’s yours? Like it gets what you’ve been through without you having to say a word? That’s the magic I’d want “Storms Never Last” to have. It’s not just some track on a playlist—it’s a hand reaching out, saying, “I’ve been there too.” Maybe it’s born from some old country soul or a late-night jam session after a rough day. Whatever it is, it’s got heart, and it’s got staying power. What do you think—does it feel like something you’d turn up and let sink in?

Lyrics
Storms never last, do they, baby?
Bad times all pass with the winds
Your hand in mine stills the thunder
And you make the sun want to shine
I followed you down so many roads, baby
I picked wild flowers and sung you soft sad songs
And every road you took, I know your search was for the truth
And the clouds brewin’ now won’t be your last
Storms never last, do they, babe?
Bad times all pass with the winds
Your hand in mine stills the thunder
And your love makes the sun want to shine
Storms never last, do they, baby?
Bad times all pass with the winds
Your hand in mine stills the thunder
And you make the sun want to shine
