Lightning Lyrics by Keely Burn

2015

I've been down, I've been out and about
Been walking this land with my feet on the ground
Your face was hanging on a wall in my mind
Ten years I've been searching, it was you I did find
Last time we met, you tore down the night
Kicked me out of bed and you stole my light

If you could see me now, would you ask me to stay?
Would you say you're sorry? Would you turn away?
Would you be proud of the woman inside?
Tough as iron with the lightning in her eyes

Eyes
What would you say to me?

Through the alleys I was chasing my dreams
I had songs in my heart 'til you abandoned me
Then I went sailing wide over the ocean blue
Ignoring еvery scrap that kept me thinking of you
You hеld my hand when we crossed the street
I thought you always would take care of me, but...

If you could see me now, would you ask me to stay?
Would you say you're sorry? Would you turn away?
Would you still know me by my face?
We've been transformed by our lifelong race

And I'm not the same girl you said that you loved
On that starry night with the Moon up above
It took me a decade to figure out that you never live twice
So why would I stick around?
There's no time to play nice

If I could see you now, I wouldn't ask you to stay
I'd slam the door in your face and make you walk away
I hope you'd do the same if I came 'round to see
There's no way to hide the lightning in me

If you could see me now
Whoah
What would you say to me?
Please don't ask me to stay
