Thunderstorm
You’re a thunderstorm
Always coming on strong and coming on fast
I wanna hold you baby
But, baby how long can that really last?
Can I tame your heart?
Do I even wanna to try?
That would mean changing you
And if you changed, then I would die
You see…
It’s like chasing lightning
And trying to hold tight
If you’d just let me, baby
Then maybe, baby, I might
Oh yeah,
But there’s
No holding
Onto lightning
Tonight
You’re a hurricane force
Always building up speed and running around
I wanna stop you baby
Or at least, somehow, try to slow you down
But, can I stop that rain?
Do I even wanna to try?
I’d be going against your nature
And that would make me die
You see…
It’s like chasing lightning
And trying to hold tight
If you’d just let me, baby
Then maybe, baby, I might
Oh yeah,
But there’s
No holding
Onto lightning
Tonight
I gotta let you run your course
can’t ever try to stop your force
Cause, baby, if I were to even try
I’d stop what makes you, you and baby I would die
You see…
It’s like chasing lightning
And trying to hold tight
If you’d just let me, baby
Then maybe, baby, I might
Oh yeah,
But there’s
No holding
Onto lightning
Tonight
