Are You Lightning? Lyrics by Nada Surf

Lucky

2008

And so we meet and there are sparks
It's gold, it's new and free from sharks
Your house is big; it seems so clean
Your cleaning lady comes and we're discreet
Are you lightning?
'Cause I'm waiting
What's the timing?
I'm not playing
And so I act like I'm 21
Wide eyed and drifting unto sun
Payback is here; my legs are numb
I'm back; it's square one, feeling dumb
The sweet things
When do they come?
Have I gone deaf?
What's the song?
Are you lightning?
'Cause I'm waiting
This is frightening
I'm not playing
I see you in my sheets
I see you in my sleep
I see you through the mirror
You sing, "We're not to steal."
The only thing I'm scared of is the secret that you keep
I know where you are
I don't know where you are
Don't make the other wonder or the others might sting
Tell me what you're thinking
Do not let me twist
Just look at the size of you
I see you in my sheets
I see you in my sleep
I see you with something that's funny
I hear you; I almost weep
I see you from my steps
You're walking up my street
But just look at the size of you
I see you in my sheets
I see you in my sleep
I see you from my steps
You're walking up my street
And just look at the size of you
Let the sun shine on and on
Let the sun shine on and on
