Through the sunshine
Through the clouds and stormy weather
For such a long time
We have stayed together and I've
Seen the darkness
I've seen the rain but when it falls
You're still the lightning in my heart

There were moments
When I missed my chances
I couldn't reach out
For building my defenses then I
Heard the silence
I heard the thunder but when it roars
You're still the lightning in my heart

You're still the brightness
When the shadows wanna reach my heart
You're still the sunrise
Every time my sky goes dark

And if I ever
In a million years shall doubt you
Just remind me
How to wrap my love around you
I've found the secret
And I'll never never let it go, no no
You're still the lightning in my heart

Like the earth
Like the earth
Like the earth
Like the earth

You're the lightning
You're the lightning
You're the lightning
You're the lightning

Through the sunshine
Through the clouds and stormy weather
For such a long time
We have stayed together and I've
I've seen the darkness
I've seen the rain but when it falls
You're still the lightning in my heart
Oh yeah
Oh yeah, yes you are

You're the light
That lights up my life, oh yeah

My own
Still the lightning
Still the lightning
You're still the lightning that I recall
You're still my reason
My reason for living
Still the one I can always call my own
You're still the reason
For my living
My own, my reason for living
If I ever need a friend
I can always call on you
Ooh
