Lightning
You would hit me just like lightning
Give me shelter from the rain
Stay down way down
You stayed on my mind
Like a flashback like a whiteout
I could feel you in my veins
Way down
But not quite like pain
No not quite the same
I would give give give give
Everything i own
I would live live live live
Like i used to know
I would give give give give
Everything i own
To find my way back home
Lightning
Time went by it’s frightening
But it feels like nothing changed
Way down stay down
You stayed on my mind
Like sparkles like a new drug
You’re racing through my veins
Way down
Almost but not quite like pain
I´m not quite the same anymore
