Lightning Strikes

I close the curtains
 Won't let the day light in
 Put out the candles
 Pour another gin

 And when the lightning strikes
 The thunder's never far away
 And you're the lightning like
 I’m thunder on a foggy day
 Or so it seems, or so it seems

 Darkness approaching
 Guess there's a storm breaking in
 Rain drops increasing
 Stronger gets the wind

 Autumn brought shadows
 My days of mourning are through
 Gone is the sorrow
 The way my life has grown

 When the lightning strikes
 The thunder's never far away
 And you're the lightning like
 I'm thunder on a foggy day
 Or so it seems, or so it seems

 Chords on my piano
 Fading away in the room
 The ticking of a clock or
 Is it a metronome

 And when the lightning strikes
 The thunder's never far away
 And you're the lightning like
 I'm thunder on a foggy day
 Or so it seems, or so it seems
