Don Mclean - Chain Lightning Lyrics

Send "Chain Lightning" ringtone to your cell

Sometimes when I'm thinkin that love's not around

My heart begins sinkin, I don't hear a sound

And the world is in blackness, no light shines on me

I suffer no blindness, no one can I see

Then a flash from the heavens, like loud jagged wire

And the silence is broken, and the night is on fire.

(Chorus)

It's like chain lightning, this love that I feel

Who knows where it strikes

Or when it will hit

How long it will last, or when it will quit

In the forest I'm burnin, struck down by the blast

The fever is churnin, and the heat rises fast

And those standing nearest can show their concern

But swear if they touch me, that they too will burn

They fear for their lives, for death will soon dwell

In the warmth of your love is the fire of hell.

(Chorus)

It's like chain lightning, this love that I feel

Who knows where it strikes

Or when it will hit

How long it will last, or when it will quit

And soon the sparks scatter and the wind whips the flame

And love will soon shatter what it cannot tame

And the cycle continues from life into dust

For I am now in you, with the fire of lust

I hear the explosion, and the thunder and rain

The water is falling, and the ashes remain.

(Chorus)

It's like chain lightning, this love that I feel

Who knows where it strikes

Or when it will hit

How long it will last, or when it will quit

The Indians tell us that the phoenix can rise

From teh smoldering ashes that once were my eyes

And watch beautiful colors from black and from grey

Be formed into wings and then take me away

Where evil is darkness and goodness is light

And love is the lightning that cust through the night

And strikes only once in a dark place in time

And forms a fold stairway that all of us climb.
