Lightnin’ Don’t Strike
A Western Song
By Ben W. Blue
~ 2009-04-16
- Just ’cause lightnin’ don’t strike
- In the same place twice
- Don’t mean lightnin’ won’t strike
- Again at all
-
- Just ’cause clouds fill the sky
- And the rain cries down
- Don’t mean the sun won’t come out
- And the rainbow show
-
- Just ’cause the night is dark
- And storms brew all around
- Don’t mean stars won’t shine
- And the moon won’t glow
-
- Just ’cause the day is bright
- And the sun’s too hot
- Don’t mean shade trees don’t grow
- And cool waters don’t flow
-
- Just ’cause you’re sittin’ there
- With a sad, lonely smile
- Don’t mean no one’s comin’ around
- Or no one’s waitin’ ahead
-
- Umbrella and sunglasses
- Sandals or cowboy boots
- Swim shorts or snow suits
- Or nothin’ at all
-
- Ain’t seen you happy in far too long
- I know you’re feelin’ it’s all too much
- And you’re all alone
- But keep on believin’ it’ll change
-
- Someone’s thinkin’ of you and you don’t even know
- It’s just you who’s their friend or their love
- Or they don’t know you just yet
- But you make their life better inside
-
- Don’t give up on the lightnin’
- When it don’t strike twice
- Don’t give up on the sun, moon, and stars
- When the storms roll in
-
- Don’t give up on the outside or in
- ’Cause someday will be soon
- And someone will be there again
- And things will be brand new
-
