Lightning

You're there---you're gone.
You're there---you're gone.
Silent beauty---
Soaking through.
Blinding all my---
Eyes for you.

A moment here--a moment there.
Electric shocks---
A tingling glare.
This sheer sensation---
I can't compare.
A moment here--a moment there.

Leave me breathless--leave me here.
A glimpse of daytime--
This rush of fear.
Once you're sighted---
You've disappeared.
Leave me breathless--leave me here.

You're there---you're gone.
You're there---you're gone.
Leave me thinking---
Years apart.
How you mingle---
In my heart.
You've left me blinded---
Through and through.
Reliving all my---
Thoughts of you.

Yet still you linger---
By and by.
Remain that lightning---
In my sky.
