If you want to be complete aim for just the past
If you want to talk to me, talk straight from the heart
Love’s an uninvited guest, moves in on you slow
It can take you to the place where the words don’t go
Take you where the words don’t go

Now the first time doesn’t quite connect
The second isn’t how you expect
You’ll smile when the last piece fits
Just wait ‘til the lightning hits

Close your eyes and switch to glide, hear the day is humming
Take your time here in my arms, feel the night is coming
Way beyond the afterthoughts and all those in betweens
There’s a place where you become what you have always been

Now the first time doesn’t quite connect
The second isn’t how you expect
You’ll smile when the last piece fits
Just wait ‘til the lightning hits
Just wait ‘til the lightning hits
Oh, just wait ‘til the lightning hits
Oh, just wait ‘til the lightning hits

Like a spring tide in your path, carry you from the ground
Love must always have the power to turn your head around
Try to hold it in your grasp, it will just slip by
Some believe that it can change you in one wink of an eye
Now the first time doesn’t quite connect
The second isn’t how you expect
You’ll smile when the last piece fits
Just wait ‘til the lightning hits
Now the first time doesn’t quite connect
No, the second isn’t how you expect
You’ll smile when the last piece fits
Just wait ‘til the lightning hits
Just wait ‘til the lightning hits

Lightning hits
