Lou Christie lyrics : "Lightnin' Strikes"
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.
