For so long
I've been walking this world alone
Never thought I needed anyone like you
But now it's too late
I'm lost I can't be saved
And I'm so far gone from anything I knew

'Cause you struck me down like lightning in my mind
Once in my life like lightning, just this time
And when the rain comes pouring, in your life
We'll light it up like lightning
Just this time

Lightning, lightning, lightning
Lightning, lightning, lightning

Don't say
That you're drifting away
Like a lifeboat on the horizon out at sea
And though our days are long
And it feels so far from home
You should stay right here in this perfect storm with me

'Cause you struck me down like lightning in my mind
Once in my life like lightning, just this time
And when the rain comes pouring, in your life
We'll light it up like lightning
Just this time

Lightning, lightning, lightning
Lightning, lightning, lightning
Lightning, lightning, lightning
Lightning, lightning, lightning
