Faraway Lightning

You were the crashing of the satellite

Onto my black-earth heart to brighten up the night

You were the body falling off the wall

To wear upon the stone like a waterfall

And oh-oh, where did you go?

Oh-oh, I have to know

Oh-oh, I search the sky for signs of your violence

You were the faraway lightning

Going down so silently

You were the rain that came like rain

When the hurricane broke free and every wild prick broke in to song

Oh-oh, where did you go?

And Oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh, I search the sky at night for a sign of your violence

Oh-oh, you keep on falling down

I will be standing with the others when you hit the ground

Oh-oh, you keep on falling down

I will be standing undercover when you hit the ground

You told me I was not the only one

But you should trust me love I am the only one

Oh-oh, you keep on falling down

I will be floating to the island either way
