Lightning & Snow Songtext
von Woods of Ypres

There was a flash of lightning
Followed by snow
In a moment of silence for myself
After a shock to the soul

With a look of disbelief
Alone and numb to the cold
I knew the last moment had passed
Before enduring years of sorrow

There was a crack of electric light
Coming down from a darkened sky
My dreams flashed before my eyes
As they were erased from my life

There was a flash of lightning
Followed by snow
'Twas just the moment of change
Before years of sorrow


The shock and awe
The fright and woe
I only had one life to live
And life said no

The loss of love
Has left me hollow
All bliss twists into pain
Where there was joy, years of grief have followed

There was a flash of lightning
Followed by snow
It struck my heart, only once
Which made me want it more

The emptiness it left in me
Will always need to be filled
For it will be there all the time
From now on, forever more

There was a crack of electric light
Coming down from a darkened sky
My dreams flashed before my eyes
As they were erased from my life


There was a flash of lightning
Followed by snow
'Twas just a moment of pain
Before years of sorrow

The shock and awe
The fright and woe
And when I asked for a second chance
Life said no
