Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Stop me on the corner
I swear you hit me like a vision
I, I, I wasn't expecting
But who am I to tell fate
Where it's supposed to go?
[Verse 2]
With it
Don't you blink, you might miss it
See we got a right to just love it or leave it
You find it and keep it
'Cause it ain't every day you get the chance to say
[Verse 3]
Oh, this is how it starts
Lightning strikes the heart
It goes off like a gun
Brighter than the sun
Oh, we could be the stars
Falling from the sky
Shining how we want
Brighter than the sun
[Verse 4]
I never seen it
But I found this love, I'm gonna feed it
You better believe I'm gonna treat it
Better than anything I've ever had
'Cause you're so damn beautiful
[Verse 5]
Read it
It's signed and delivered, let's seal it
Boy, we go together like peanuts and PayDays
Marley and reggae
And everybody needs to get a chance to say
[Verse 6]
Oh, this is how it starts
Lightning strikes the heart
It goes off like a gun
Brighter than the sun
Oh, we could be the stars
Falling from the sky
Shining how we want
Brighter than the sun
[Verse 7]
Everything is like a white out
'Cause we shicka-shicka-shine down
Even when the, when the light's out
But I can see a glow
Got my head up in the rafters
Got me happy ever after
Never felt this way before
Ain't felt this way before
[Verse 8]
I swear you hit me like a vision
I, I, I wasn't expecting
But who am I to tell fate
Where it's supposed to go?
[Verse 9]
Oh, this is how it starts
Lightning strikes the heart
It goes off like a gun
Brighter than the sun
Oh, we could be the stars
Falling from the sky
Shining how we want
Brighter than the sun
[Verse 10]
Oh, this is how it starts
Lightning strikes the heart
It goes off like a gun
Brighter than the sun
Oh, we could be the stars
Falling from the sky
Shining how we want
Brighter than the sun
[Verse 11]
Brighter than the sun
Brighter than the sun
Brighter than the sun
[Verse 12]
Oh, this is how it starts
Lightning strikes the heart
It goes off like a gun
Brighter than the sun
Oh, this is how it starts
Lightning strikes the heart
It goes off like a gun
Brighter than the sun
[Verse 13]
Oh, this is how it starts
Lightning strikes the heart
It goes off like a gun
Brighter than the sun
Oh, this is how it starts
Lightning strikes the heart
It goes off like a gun
Brighter than the sun
