The night is closing in And the rain is beginning to fall The thunder is ripping the night apart And the wolves are beginning to call I’m down in the valley As the damned begin to scream I’m down begging on my knees As you live out your dreams Everything has turned inside out And I lost control in the heat of the night Everyone has begun to shout I lost my soul in the deep of the night Bridge- I never knew how much I could hurt with out you here I could never guess how much Pain you get when the fever sears There’s just one thing I know That I could never let you go There’s not a thing I won’t do Cos I’m so in love with you But- Chorus- Once is too many times I have paid the ultimate price It will never be the same Lightning never strikes twice I was at the top of the world, now I’m sinking I’ve put my fate on the dice We can never be the same again Cos lightning never strikes twice I was at the top of the world Lightning never strikes twice Now I’m drowning under the mud Lightning never strikes twice Once is too many times Lightning never strikes twice! You wanted everything then nothing at all You needed something when you came to fall I can remember how it used to be How we made love, it set me free Now I’m racing out of town And I’m raring to go As I fly above the houses I never even look down My wings shudder in the wind The storm rages, as does my hear A lightning bolt lashes And I fall apart The pain is never ending Yet I know the end is near I look into the face of death Yet I no longer hold any fear Bridge- I never knew how much I could hurt with out you here I could never guess how much Pain you get when the fever sears There’s just one thing I know That I could never let you go There’s not a thing I won’t do Cos I’m so in love with you But- Chorus- Once is too many times I have paid the ultimate price It will never be the same Lightning never strikes twice I was at the top of the world, now I’m sinking I’ve put my fate on the dice We can never be the same again Cos lightning never strikes twice I was at the top of the world Lightning never strikes twice Now I’m drowning under the mud Lightning never strikes twice Once is too many times Lightning never strikes twice! I’m just a leaf thrown into the wind As I tumble, I look back on life And that’s when I realise – Lighting never strikes twice! [Once is too many times] Lighting never strikes twice! [My heart is raging] Lightning never strikes twice! [I know the end is near] Lightning never strikes twice! [The night is closing in] Lightning never strikes twice! Lightning never strikes twice! Lightning never strikes twice!
