Lightnin' Strikes - Hard Rain

I’ve been standing 'cross the street 'most every night

Trying to keep my eye on you

I’ve been waiting but it seems you never come

I never get to you

I need a chance 'cause there’s a lot that I could say

And there’s things that I’d like to do

Most of all I want to take you away

I’ve got to get to you some way

Can’t you see the lightning strike

Run like wild horses

May never be another night like this

Well, you can’t stand up and fight

Against those strange forces

It’s just a thing you can’t afford to miss

There’s people telling me I’m crazy, they don’t know

Shouldn’t trust a word you say

Your excuse is they’re just lies, you’re having fun

Why don’t I stay away?

Maybe they’re right but I don’t feel it in my heart

You took it out of my control

I’ve fallen in but I don’t know where I should start

I’m in a minefield, cold and dark

Can’t you see the lightning strike

Run like wild horses

May never be another night like this

Well, you can’t stand up and fight

Against those strange forces

It’s just a thing you can’t afford to miss

When it cuts you like a knife

So deep it’s hurting

But gets you going like a deadly kiss

Could be anything you want

While the world’s turning

You never know it till the bullet hits

Can’t you see the lightning strike

Run like wild horses

May never be another night like this

Well, you can’t stand up and fight

Against those strange forces

It’s just a thing you can’t afford to miss

When it cuts you like a knife

So deep it’s hurting

But gets you going like a deadly kiss

Could be anything you want

While the world’s turning

You never know it till the bullet hits
