LIGHTNING BOLT

I wasn’t looking
I wasn’t looking when you showed, no
I wasn’t asking
I never asked cupid for someone to hold
But you came into my life like fire from gasoline
You lit me up before I could say no, no
And you make my soul feel like it’s bouncing on a trampoline
I don’t know how much higher I could go

All I know is when it’s cold out, I use your love as my coat
If you’re ever in rough waters, use my love as your lifeboat
You must be a magician; you make me feel like I can float
And the two of us together, we light it up like a lightning bolt
Like a lightning bolt

I wasn’t feeling
I wasn’t feeling too hot before you gave me a dose
Of your healing
Of the healing you got underneath those clothes
‘Cause underneath your shirt, your heart holds the medicine
That I need to keep mine beating, keep it beating now
Cause being without you is like the earth with no ocean
You keep it cool to keep me breathing, you’re keeping me breathing

All I know is when it’s cold out, I use your love as my coat
If you’re ever in rough waters, use my love as your lifeboat
You must be a magician; you make me feel like I can float
And the two of us together, we light it up like a lightning bolt
Like a lightning bolt

I know, I said I’d take this slow
But I can’t hold myself back so I’m letting go
And I know our love can grow
I’ll be tender, you’ll be loving, and we’ll care for it
I’ll lift you up when you’re low

All I know is when it’s cold out, I use your love as my coat
If you’re ever in rough waters, use my love as your lifeboat
You must be a magician; you make me feel like I can float
And the two of us together, we light it up like a lightning bolt
Like a lightning bolt
