Down, down on my luck
Emptying out the rest of this half-empty cup.
Up on a hill, promises still remain as carvings on a trunk.
And fiery hearts burn twice as fast, and fiery hearts burn twice as fast.
The heat of a moment just can’t last.
And we had love like lightning
Crashing down
It don’t strike twice, darlin’, without burnin’ up the ground.
And if it sounds too frightening
Drop my hand
Life without its strife don’t make no sculptures out of sand.
Once, once it was known
You were the only thing that kept this train on track
Moving ahead past all the doubts that called my heart and soul their bed.
Fiery hearts burn twice as fast, fiery hearts burn twice as fast.
The heat of a moment just can’t last.
And we had love like lightning
Crashing down
It don’t strike twice, darlin’, without burnin’ up the ground.
And if it sounds too frightening
Drop my hand
Life without its strife don’t make no sculptures out of sand.
And we had love like lightning.
And we had love like lightning.
