Lightning in a Bottle - Alannah Myles

Lightning in a bottle

Fish in the stream

You in all your glory’s

What I need

You got a gambler’s grin

In the glow of the match

Hard as steel

And as soft as ash

Oh no… Tell me are you really like a sparrow in a hurrican

It’s like lightning in a bottle

Fish on the line

Tell me a story

Read my mind

I don’t want

Waste my time

Tell me will it be your world

Or will it be mine, mine, mine

Oh no… Tell me are you ready like a sparrow in a hurrican

Whoa no… Are you prepared for a walk in the naked rain

I would crawl, you know, you know I’d swim

I’d climb a mountain baby, I’d dive right in

Do the monkey, do the fly

Take a chance on comin' back for another life

One more time

Verse III:

It’s like lightning in a bottle

Fish in a stream

You in all your glory’s

What I need

Dogs are in the field

Moon floats on the lake

This is all too good

To be a big mistake

Oh no… Tell me are you ready like a sparrow in a hurrican

Whoa no… Are you prepared for a walk in the naked rain

I would crawl, you know I’d swim

I’d climb a mountain baby, I’d dive right in

Do the monkey, do the fly

Take a chance on comin' back for another life

One more time

One more time
