It's close to midnight

There's a chill in the air

I long to touch you

but I don't dare

there's a wall between us

there's a storm in the air

though yu're lying beside me

It's like you're not even there

When the lightning strikes

I don't want to be here

when the cold wind bites

I don't want to be here

Ooh it hurts me

though we won't be talking

I hear every word you say

Now the rain is falling

Like a million tears

Coming through my window

To wash away the years

When the lightning strikes

Oh can you feel it

there's astorm in the air

and it's getting nearer

when the cloud breaks

I don't want to be here

to feel the rain

feel the pain

There's a wall between us

There's a storm in the air

though you're lying beside me

It's like you're not even there

When the lightning strikes

Oh can you feel it

there's a storm in the air

And it's getting nearer

when the cloud breaks

I don't want to be here

to feel the rain

When the lightning strikes

When the lightning strikes
