Feels Like Lightning

Little rooster out on a fence post crowing

Here come the storm like a big rig rolling

Here come the storm like a big rig flying

Heavy, loaded down, fit to split the sky in

And oh, my little heart's in trouble

Feels like it just might explode

Why do they call it love when

Oh, it feels like lightning?

I’m out in the open and the wind starts blowing

I don't know any which way I'm going

I don't know any which way I'm bound

I used to be laughing but I ain't laughing now

And oh, my little heart's in trouble

Feels like it just might explode

Why do they call it love when

Oh, it feels like lightning?

With cherry blossoms sweet with smoke

And Venus blazing above the oak

I thought I knew all that there was to know

With the bluebirds flying high above

And God in his heaven, wherever that was

And the sun was on the face of the buffalo

Out across the fields are the thunderheads gathering

Clouds all turned to the color of a cavern

Dust devils spinning ‘round a hollow sound

They used to be laughing but they ain't laughing now

And oh, my little heart's in trouble

Feels like it just might explode

Why do they call it love when

Oh, it feels like lightning?

This ain't any kind of storm for chasing

Gonna catch up to you now, slow or racing

Gonna catch up to you now, by and by

Gonna make you feel good, gonna make you cry

And oh, my little heart's in trouble

Feels like it just might explode

Why do they call it love when

Oh, it feels like

Oh, my little heart's in trouble

Feels like it just might explode

Why do they call it love when

Oh, it feels like lightning?

Feels like lightning
