Lighting Strikes Songtext
von Klaus Nomi

Listen to me, baby, you got to understand
You′re old enough to learn the makings of a man
Listen to me, baby, it's time to settle down
Am I asking too much, for you to stick around?

Every boy wants a girl he can trust to the very end
Baby, that′s you, won't you stay?
But 'til then, when I see your lips begging to be kissed
I can′t stop (stop!) I can′t stop myself!

Lightning's striking (striking) again!
(And again, and again, and again, and a-)
Lightning′s striking (striking) again!
(And again, and again, and again, and a-)

Nature's taken over my one-track mind
Believe it or not, you′re in my heart all the time
All the girls are saying that you'll end up a fool
For the time being, baby live by my rules!


When I settle down, I want one baby on my mind
Forgive and forget, and I′ll make up for all lost time
She's put together fine, and she's on my mind
I can′t stop! I can′t stop myself!

Lightning's striking (striking) again!
(And again, and again, and again, and a-)
Lightning′s striking (striking) again!
(And again, and again, and again, and a-)

There's a chapel in the pines waiting for us around the bend
Picture me in your mind, love forever!
But ′til then, when I see your lips begging to be kissed
I can't stop (stop!) I can′t stop myself!

Lightning's striking (striking) again!
(And again, and again, and again, and a-)
Lightning's striking (striking) again!
(And again, and again, and again, and a-)

Lightning′s striking (striking) again!
(And again, and again, and again, and a-)
Lightning′s striking (striking) again!
(And again, and again, and again, and a-)


Lightning's striking (striking) again!
(And again, and again, and again, and a-)
Lightning′s striking (striking) again!
(And again, and again, and again, and a-)

Lightning's striking (striking) again!
(And again, and again, and again, and a-)
