And just like that, you were done with me
You hitched a ride on an August breeze
Left me with nothing but a memory
Of a spark, and a flame that I can't get out of my head

I bet you're heading west
Said that it's for the best
'Cause you never stick around
Tornadoes need new towns
To roll up and blow away
I guess it's my mistake
To think you'd come back one day

'Cause look what you did to me
Lit me up so fast like a summer night crash
Heat wave, yeah, you were a wild streak
Flashing 'cross that sky while the thunder rolls
You don't strike twice 'cause lightning don't
Yeah, lightning don't

Had that back 40 backseat on fire
Singing hallelujah like a church choir
Little did I know we were spinning tires
And I've tried to find that high ever since

But look what you did to me
Lit me up so fast like a summer night crash
Heat wave, yeah, you were a wild streak
Flashing 'cross that sky while the thunder rolls
You don't strike twice 'cause lightning don't
Yeah, lightning don't

I bet you're heading west
Said that it's for the best
'Cause you never stick around
Tornadoes need new towns
To roll up and blow away
I guess it's my mistake
To think you'd come back one day

'Cause look what you did to me
Lit me up so fast like a summer night crash
Heat wave, yeah, you were a wild streak
Flashing 'cross that sky while the thunder rolls
You don't strike twice 'cause lightning don't

Yeah, lightning don't
Lightning don't
Lightning don't
