Lightning In A Bottle

© 2025 TRIPP Music Studios. All Rights Reserved Lyrics Written by TRIPP [Verse 1] When I saw you standing there, I was sure you’d never play… I could not believe my luck, As you turned to look my way At first I didn't make a sound, I was taken by your form... Voltage was a part of you, Like lightning in a storm [Pre-chorus] I wanna give this my best shot, but know I'm nowhere close… This thing, we‘re lookin’ at, I want to make it go... [Verse 2] Tried to take the world by storm, Trapping thunder in mid roll. ‘N every time I’d reached for you, We’d both pay the toll… Smiled like it’d work this time, The Cosmos called our bluff— You know can't chain down lightning, There’s nothing strong enough... [Pre-chorus] I wanna give this my best shot, but know I'm nowhere close… This thing, we‘re lookin’ at, I want to make it go... [Chorus] You're lightning in a bottle, Something I can't hold I tried to keep you with me, ‘N I made it to the show… It was never meant to happen, I couldn't hold you still Your lightning in a bottle, Takes so much more than will... [Bridge] It wasn’t that we didn’t try, Both gave it our best shot… The house had bet against us, While we were running hot... [Verse 3] I think about you all the time, I just can't jump back in... A fire burns behind my eyes, ‘N lightning strikes within… It wasn't meant to happen, ‘N I can't fake a thrill… How could I ever see another, When it's like standing still… [Pre-chorus] I wanna give this my best shot, but know I'm nowhere close… This thing, we‘re lookin’ at, but I was way to slow... [Chorus] You're lightning in a bottle, Just try not to get burned... I want to keep you with me, Why can't I ever learn… It was never meant to happen, I couldn't hold you still Your lightning in a bottle, Takes so much more than will... [Outro] If you ever reach for fire Know you can get burned, ‘N if I had the chance again You think I've never learned [pause] You're lightning in a bottle, I’ll try not to get burned... [End]
