In the dark of the night you were my light
Although you were the first source you weren't the last
Illuminated my life so briefly then dropped me back in the dark
Left with just the echoes of an event that's already past
They say that lightning never strikes twice
Well I'm living proof been burned alive
They say that lightning never strikes twice
But I've been burnt to a cinder all my life
Pick myself up and take the time to heal my burns
I try to move on but my heart still yearns
Some time goes by then a second one comes along
A brief flash of hope that soon was gone
They say that lightning never strikes twice
Well I'm living proof been burned alive
They say that lightning never strikes twice
But I've been burnt to a cinder all my life
They say that lightning never strikes twice
Well I'm living proof been burned alive
They say that lightning never strikes twice
But I've been burnt to a cinder all my life
