I remember days I was younger growing up with the thunder
Living inside of me
I ran fast like a river, fell hard like timber
Hoping that I would see everything

But I can be the one to hold on
I just need to know for how long

Ooh I’ve been waiting for lightning to strike
Ooh I’ve been waiting for lightning to strike

I want to know where to go to find
The place where the eyes and the mind meet
Where the charge in the sky meets this ground of mine
Yeah a flash of your light is all I need

Yeah, I can be the one to hold on
I just need to know for how long

Ooh, I’ve been waiting for lightning to strike
Ooh, I’ve been waiting for lightning to strike

I’m in the storm, my arms are stretched
I’m standing here, please don’t forget
I’m waiting for lightning
My heart’s a key tied to a string
Up on a kite, what will it bring?
I’m waiting for lightning to strike

Ooh, I’ve been waiting for lightning to strike
Ooh, I’ve been waiting for lightning to strike

I’m in the storm my arms are stretched
I’m standing here please don’t forget
I’ve been waiting for lightning to strike
My heart’s a key tied to a string
Up on a kite what will it bring
I’ve been waiting for lightning

I’m waiting for lightning
I’m waiting for lightning to strike
