Struck By Lightning Twice

(album: Power - 1980)

I was struck by lightning twice
Don't leave me crying in the rain
I was struck by lightning twice
Only your love can ease the pain

Like a bolt of lightning from the sky above, I was struck by love
Heartaches crash, friends laugh at the fool I was
I saw it coming but I couldn't start running from the hurt and pain
What hurt me so, is I took you back in my arms again

I was struck by lightning twice
Don't leave me crying in the rain, oh, no
I was struck by lightning twice
Only your love can ease the pain

When you're close to me, it's like standing near a tree in a thunderstorm
I take the risk for your tenderness, though I'd been warned
I let you back in my life again after I'd been burned
I'm a fool for your love, I guess I'll never learn

I was struck by lightning twice
Don't leave me crying in the rain
I was struck by lightning twice
Only your love can ease the pain

You made a fool out of me
The whole world could see

Don't leave me crying, don't leave me crying
Don't leave me crying in the rain
Don't leave me crying, don't leave me crying
Don't leave me crying in the rain
Don't leave me crying, don't leave me crying
Don't leave me crying in the rain
Don't leave me crying, don't leave me crying
Don't leave me crying in the rain

I'm soaked in tears, I'm racked in pain (Racked in pain)
Your promises are on my mind
I'll take love's rain and love's thunder
If you bring back love's sunshine

(I was struck by lightning twice) I was struck by lightning twice
(Don't leave me crying in the rain) Don't leave me crying in, I don't want to cry, Lord, no, no
(I was struck by lightning twice)
(Only your love can ease the pain) Only your love, only your love, yeah
(I was struck by lightning twice) I was struck by lightning
(Don't leave me crying in the rain) Babe, don't leave me, baby
(I was struck by lightning twice) I was struck, two times, my God
(Only your love can ease the pain)
(I was struck by lightning twice) I was struck by lightning
(Don't leave me crying in the rain) Don't leave me crying in the rain
(I was struck by lightning twice)
