The Lightning Strike: What If This Storm Ends? / The Sunlight Through the Flags / Daybreak Songtext
von Snow Patrol

What if this storm ends?
And I don′t see you
As you are now
Ever again

The perfect halo
Of gold hair and lightning
Sets you off against
The planet's last dance

Just for a minute
The silver forked sky
Lit you up like a star
That I will follow


Now it′s found us
Like I have found you
I don't want to run
Just overwhelm me

What if this storm ends?
And leaves us nothing
Except a memory
A distant echo

I want pinned down
I want unsettled
Rattle cage after cage
Until my blood boils

I want to see you
As you are now
Every single day
That I am living


Painted in flames
All peeling thunder
Be the lightning in me
That strikes relentless
