When The Lightning Strikes - Smokie

It’s close to midnight

There’s a chill in the air

I long to touch you

But I don’t dare

There’s a wall between us

There’s a storm in the air

Though you’re lying beside me

It’s like you’re not even there

When the lightning strikes

I don’t want to here

When the cold wind bites

I don’t want to be here

Well the day of silence

Ooh, it hurts me

Though we won’t be talking

I hear every word you say

Now the rain is falling

Like a million tears

Coming through my window

To wash away the years

When the lightning strikes

I don’t want to here

When the cold wind bites

I don’t want to be here

Oh, can you feel it

There’s a storm in the air

And it’s getting nearer

When the cloud breaks

I don’t want to be here

To feel the rain

Feel the pain

There’s a wall between us

There’s a storm in the air

Though you’re lying beside me

It’s like you’re not even there

When the lightning strikes

I don’t want to here

When the cold wind bites

I don’t want to be here

Oh, can you feel it

There’s a storm in the air

And it’s getting nearer

When the cloud breaks

I don’t want to be here

To feel the rain

When the lightning strikes

I don’t want to here

When the cold wind bites

I don’t want to be here

When the lightning strikes

When the cold wind bites

Oh baby

I don’t want to be here

I don’t want to be here
