What if this storm ends?
And I don't see you
As you are now
Ever againThe perfect halo
Of gold hair and lightning
Sets you off against
The planet's last danceJust for a minute
The silver forked sky
Lit you up like a star
That I will followNow it's found us
Like I have found you
I don't want to run
Just overwhelm meWhat if this storm ends?
And leaves us nothing
Except a memory
A distant echoI want pinned down
I want unsettled
Rattle cage after cage
Until my blood boilsI want to see you
As you are now
Every single day
That I am livingPainted in flames
All peeling thunder
Be the lightning in me
That strikes relentlessWhat if this storm ends?
And I don't see you
As you are now
Ever againThe perfect halo
Of gold hair and lightning
Sets you off against
The planet's last danceJust for a minute
The silver forked sky
Lit you up like a star
That I will followNow it's found us
Like I have found you
I don't want to run
Just overwhelm me
