You already got hit by lightning
You should've died, because I did
In the heat of the moment
About to strike
You leave me hiding under the trees
Cowering like a scared little cat
And I watched as the only one I had ever loved
Strike down
Hitting only her, who must not be named
And with the touch of his lips to here
Her heart ignited, and she jumped for joy when she hadnt died,
even though she should have
She laughed right in my face
For she had been love stricken
By my almost lover
Stole him away in the blink of an eye
In a flash of lightning
Just like that
Vanished
And just like that, my heart had broken
Shattered, into a million pieces
As if my heart were glass,
Glass made by a bolt to sand
On the lake shore in Alabama
The damage it caused to the many confused walls I had built
The walls I made to keep you out
But maybe what I should've done, was stick a lightning rod out from my heart
And maybe your sweet soft lips would've touched mine
Stricken me, igniting my heart,
Once more
