Alannah Myles - Lightning in a Bottle Lyrics

Lightning in a bottle;
Fish in the stream.
You in all your glory's;
What I need.

You got a gambler's grin,
In the glow of the match.
Hard as steel,
And as soft as ash.

Oh, no... Tell me, are you really like a sparrow in a hurricane?
It's like lightning in a bottle;
Fish on the line.
Tell me a story.
Read my mind.

I don't want.
Waste my time.
Tell me, will it be your world,
Or will it be mine, mine, mine?

Oh, no... Tell me, are you ready like a sparrow in a hurricane?
Whoa, no... Are you prepared for a walk in the naked rain?

[Chorus]
I would crawl, you know, you know I'd swim.
I'd climb a mountain baby, I'd dive right in.
Do the monkey, do the fly.
Take a chance, on comin' back for another life,
One more time.

It's like lightning in a bottle;
Fish in a stream.
You in all your glory's;
What I need.

Dogs are in the field.
Moon floats on the lake.
This is all too good,
To be a big mistake.

[Chorus]

Oh, no... Tell me, are you ready like a sparrow in a hurricane?
Whoa, no... Are you prepared for a walk in the naked rain?

[Chorus]

One more time.
One more time.
