The Lightning Strike lyrics |
[I - What If This Storm Ends?] |
What if this storm ends? |
And I don't see you |
As you are now |
Ever again |
The perfect halo |
Of gold hair and lightning |
Sets you off against |
The planet's last dance |
Just for a minute |
The silver forked sky |
Lit you up like a star |
That I will follow |
Now it's found us |
Like I have found you |
I don't want to run |
Just overwhelm me |
What if this storm ends? |
And leaves us nothing |
Except a memory |
A distant echo |
I want pinned down |
I want unsettled |
Rattle cage after cage |
Until my blood boils |
I want to see you |
As you are now |
Every single day |
That I am living |
Painted in flames |
All peeling thunder |
Be the lightning in me |
That strikes relentless |
[II - The Sunlight Through The Flags] |
From here the caravans are kids toys |
And I can hold them all in my palm |
I watch the sea creep round the corner |
It connects the dots from here to you |
The sunlight burning through the loose flags |
Painted high on white church walls |
I chase my blood from brain to thumped heart |
Until I'm out of breath for trying |
Worry not everything is sound |
This is the safest place you've found |
The only noise beating out is ours |
Lacing our tea from honey jars |
These accidents of faith and nature |
They tend to stick in the spokes of you |
But every now and then the trend bucks |
And you're repaired by more than glue |
Worry not everything is sound |
This is the safest place you've found |
The only noise beating out is ours |
Lacing our tea from honey jars |
Why don't you rest your fragile bones |
A minute ago you looked alone |
Stop waving your arms you're safe and dry |
Breathe in and drink up the winter sky |
[III - Daybreak] |
Slowly the day breaks apart in our hands |
And soft hallelujahs flow in from the church |
The one on the corner you said frightened you |
It was too dark and too large to find your soul in |
Something was bound to go right sometime today |
All these broken pieces fit together to make a perfect picture of us |
It got cold and then dark so suddenly and rained |
It rained so hard the two of us were the only thing |
That we could see for miles and miles |
And in the middle of the flood I felt my worth |
When you held onto me like I was your little life raft |
Please know that you were mine as well |
Drops of water hit the ground like God's own tears |
And spread out into shapes like |
Salad bowls and basins and buckets for bailing out the flood |
As motionless cars rust on driveways and curbs |
You take off your raincoat and stretch out your arms |
We both laugh out loud and surrender to it |
The sheer force of sky and the cold magnet Earth |
