(Country ballad, slow tempo, pedal steel guitar and harmonica solo) [Verse 1]
She touched his hand and the lightnin’ struck,
Two lost souls all out of luck.
But sometimes fate comes breakin’ through,
‘Neath a copper sky turnin’ red to blue.
One small spark in the summer air,
Turned a simple touch into a whispered prayer. [Pre-Chorus]
And in that moment the world stood still,
Every fear they had just rolled downhill. [Chorus]
Hearts beat like thunder and the love winds blew,
Shakin’ the ground like a dream come true.
Eyes locked together and then they knew,
There’s a fire burnin’ that they won’t undo.
Storm clouds parted and the whole night grew
Into forever — just me and you. [Verse 2]
They walked the river by the moon light shine,
Talkin’ ‘bout life and the ties that bind.
Every secret that they held inside
Spilled like rain from a rising tide.
Two broken hearts learnin’ how to mend,
Storm-born lovers ’til the very end. [Pre-Chorus]
Even the wildest winds can calm,
When a touch turns fate into a psalm. [Chorus]
Hearts beat like thunder and the love winds blew,
Shakin’ the ground like a dream come true.
Eyes locked together and then they knew,
There’s a fire burnin’ that they won’t undo.
Storm clouds parted and the whole night grew
Into forever — just me and you. [Bridge]
Some folks search their whole lives long,
Never find where they belong.
But one spark in the dark can change the night,
Turnin’ two lost hearts into one bright light. [Final Chorus]
Hearts beat like thunder and the love winds blew,
Risin’ up strong like a sky turned new.
Eyes locked together and then they knew —
The storm that found them was heaven’s cue.
Love struck hard, and love struck true…
When the lightnin’ hit, it led them to you.
