You find it and keep it ’cause (E)it ain’t ev ’ry day you get the chance to say… (A)Oh, this is how it starts.

Light ning strikes the heart; it goes off like a gun,

bright er than the sun.

(A)Oh, we could be the stars

Swear you hit me like a vi sion I, I, I was n’t ex pect ing,

(A)Oh, we could be the stars

fall in’ from the sky,

shin in’ how we want,

Light ning strikes the heart; it goes off like a gun,
