[Verse 1] Morning It's another pure grey morning Don't know what the day is holding When I get uptight and I walk right into The path of a lightning bolt Sirens Of an ambulance comes howling Right through the center of town and No one blinks an eye and I look up to the sky of The path of a lightning bolt Met her As the angels parted for her But she only brought me torture But that's what happens When it's you who's standing in the path of a lightning bolt [Chorus] Everyone I see just wants to walk with gritted teeth But I just stand by and I wait my time They say you gotta tow the line They want the water not the wine But when I see the signs I jump on that lightning bolt [Verse 2] Chances People tell you not to take chances When they tell you that there aren't any answers And I was starting to agree But I awoke suddenly in the path of a lightning bolt Fortune People talking all about fortune Do you make it or does it just call you In the blinking of an eye Just another pa**erby in the path of a lightning bolt [Chorus] Everyone I see just wants to walk with gritted teeth But I just stand by and I wait my time They say you gotta tow the line They want the water not the wine But when I see the signs I jump on that lightning bolt [Verse 3] It was silent I was lying back gazing skyward When the moment got shattered I remembered what she said And then she fled in the path of a lightning bolt
