Girl i guess i've been forgiving
I've acquired a taste for living
Just when i was close to giving up the ghost
And i be what i believe
About as often as i can be
And i maybe can be oftener than most

And if the best i have to offer is the chances you will be taking
With the heart that you will be breaking if you lose
Well i can't tell you how to take it
Girl i know you know the answer darling tell me one more time before you choose,
Did you feel a little lighting, did you feel a little thunder,
That was barely running under your control
Was it just a little frightening,
As he stared into the wonder of the deep and starry splendor of your soul
I won't be surprised to see you heading down the highway
Just like every dream i never see come true
Look for me to go on living
If you loving me or leaving darling tell me one more time before you do
Did you feel a little lighting, did you feel a little thunder
That was barely running under your control
Was it just a little frightening when he stared
Into the wonder of the deep and starry splendor of your soul.
