Lightnin’ Strikes
Listen to me, baby, you gotta understand
You're old enough to know the makings of a man
Listen to me, baby, it's hard to settle down
Am I asking too much for you to stick around?
Every boy wants a girl
He can trust to the very end
Baby, that's you
Won't you wait? But 'til then
When I see lips beggin' to be kissed
(Stop)
I can't stop
(Stop)
I can't stop myself
(Stop, stop)
Lightning's striking again
Lightning's striking again
Nature's takin' over my one-track mind
Believe it or not, you're in my heart all the time
All the girls are sayin' that you'll end up a fool
For the time being, baby, live by my rules
When I settle down
I want one baby on my mind
Forgive and forget
And I'll make up for all lost time
If she's put together fine
And she's readin' my mind
(Stop)
I can't stop
(Stop)
I can't stop myself
(Stop, stop)
Lightning's striking again
Lightning's striking again
And again and again and again
Lightning's striking again
Lightning's striking again
There's a chapel in the pines
Waiting for us, around the bend
Picture in your mind
Love forever, but 'til then
If she gives me a sign
That she wants to make time
(Stop)
I can't stop
(Stop)
I can't stop myself
(Stop, stop)
Lightning's striking again
Lightning's striking again
And again and again and again
Lightning's striking again
And again and again and again
You're old enough to know the makings of a man
Listen to me, baby, it's hard to settle down
Am I asking too much for you to stick around?
Every boy wants a girl
He can trust to the very end
Baby, that's you
Won't you wait? But 'til then
When I see lips beggin' to be kissed
(Stop)
I can't stop
(Stop)
I can't stop myself
(Stop, stop)
Lightning's striking again
Lightning's striking again
Nature's takin' over my one-track mind
Believe it or not, you're in my heart all the time
All the girls are sayin' that you'll end up a fool
For the time being, baby, live by my rules
When I settle down
I want one baby on my mind
Forgive and forget
And I'll make up for all lost time
If she's put together fine
And she's readin' my mind
(Stop)
I can't stop
(Stop)
I can't stop myself
(Stop, stop)
Lightning's striking again
Lightning's striking again
And again and again and again
Lightning's striking again
Lightning's striking again
There's a chapel in the pines
Waiting for us, around the bend
Picture in your mind
Love forever, but 'til then
If she gives me a sign
That she wants to make time
(Stop)
I can't stop
(Stop)
I can't stop myself
(Stop, stop)
Lightning's striking again
Lightning's striking again
And again and again and again
Lightning's striking again
And again and again and again
