Listen to me, baby

You got to understand

You're old enough to learn

The makings of a man

Listen to me, baby

It's time to settle down

Am I asking too much

For you to stick around?

Every boy wants a girl

He can trust to the very end

Baby, that's you!

Won't you stay?

But 'til then

When I see lips begging to be kissed

I can't stop

I can't stop myself!

Lightning's striking again! (and again, and again)

Lightning's striking again! (and again, and again)

Nature's taken over

My one-track mind

Believe it or not

You're in my heart all the time

All the girls are saying that you'll end up a fool

For the time being, baby

Live by my rules!

When I settle down

I want one baby on my mind

Forgive and forget

And I'll make up for all lost time

She's put together fine

And she's on my mind

I can't stop!

I can't stop myself!

Lightning's striking again! (and again, and again)

Lightning's striking again! (and again, and again)

There's a chapel in the pines

Waiting for us around the bend

Picture me in your mind, love forever!

But 'til then

When I see lips begging to be kissed

I can't stop

I can't stop myself!

Lightning's striking again! (and again, and again)

Lightning's striking again! (and again, and again)

Lightning's striking again! (and again, and again)

Lightning's striking again! (and again, and again)

Lightning's striking again! (and again, and again)

Lightning's striking again! (and again, and again)

Lightning's striking again! (and again, and again)

Lightning's striking again! (and again, and again)
