Lightning Strikes
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
There ain't no way that I could ever forget you
I can't remember why I ever went and left you
Maybe I was hitting my head
Maybe must've been something that I said
Baby I want to take it back tonight
Oh oh oh oh
You don't have to tell me twice
When lightning strikes
Oh oh oh oh
You don't have to tell me twice
When lightning strikes
Eh eh eh eh eh eh eh eh
So obvious that I wasn't seeing clearly
'Cause right before my eyes you were disappearing
If I could just go back in time
Say the words that blow your mind
Loneliness is such a crime
There ain't a thing I wanna do
I wanna do yeah
Maybe I wouldn't have been so
Crazy I was stupid letting you go
Baby I want to take it back tonight
Oh oh oh oh
You don't have to tell me twice
When lighting strikes
Oh oh oh oh
You don't have to tell me twice
When lighting strikes
Why can't I
Let you know
Why can't I
Oh oh oh oh
No oh oh oh oh
You don't have to tell me twice
You don't have to tell me twice
Oh oh ooooh
You don't have to tell me twice
When lighting strikes
You don't have to tell me twice
When lightning strikes
