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
