LYRICS

Haven't moved but an inch in what feels like days
Haven't kept track of the skies as the seasons change
You've noticed by now I don't look quite the same
And when you ask me about it I don't have to say anything

You just curl me up and say 'Your love struck me like a lightning strike'

The first time I saw you move it was a vision
That downtown smokey pub was the right decision
You looked at me and you danced in my direction
I fell right into ya, I couldn't stop laughing

The first thing you said was 'Your beauty just struck me like a lightning strike'

And if I don't make it through the night, you can keep my guitar if you like
I'm sorry my body doesn't want to fight
Let's hope lightning doesn't strike the same place twice

Forty five years later we're dancing in our kitchen
Little we knew the next morning you'd find the lump on my skin
Nothing was scarier than the waiting rooms we were sitting in
Than when the doctor said it wasn't worth operating

Oh we just sat there while that news struck us like a lightning strike
Let's hope lightning doesn't strike the same place twice
You said 'Darling you know your love it has struck me one thousand times'
