"Lightning" lyrics
"Lightning"
Don't know what to say
One look and then you blew me away
I'm spiralling all over the place
So lifted, got me reaching for grace
Body off the ground
Caught me by surprise
Like seeing shooting stars in the sky
There's danger in the dark of your eyes
But something 'bout you breathes me to life
Got me here and now
Heartbreak already hit me once
They say that it won't happen twice
You struck me down like lightning, lightning
You struck me down like lightning, lightning
My stupid heart can't fight it, fight it, uhh
So tell me what you want and I'ma give it to you
Like lightning
Blinded, blinded
You took me down, I don't mind it, mind it
My stupid heart can't fight it, fight it, uhh
So tell me what you want and I'ma give it to you
Like lightning
Electrified with love on the line
So different every touch, every time
Connected by invisible wires
Don't you cut me out
Heartbreak already hit me once
So swear that it won't happen twice
You struck me down like lightning, lightning
You struck me down like lightning, lightning
My stupid heart can't fight it, fight it, uhh
So tell me what you want and I'ma give it to you
Like lightning
Blinded, blinded
You took me down, I don't mind it, mind it
My stupid heart can't fight it, fight it, uhh
So tell me what you want and I'ma give it to you
Like lightning
Uh-uh, uh, uh, uh-uh
Tell me what you want, tell me what you want
Lighting, lighting
Give it to ya, give it to ya
(Walk away, I'll follow my soul)
Blinded, blinded
Yeah, tell me what you want, tell me what you want
L-L-L-L-L-L-Lighting, l-l-l-l-l-l-lightning
Lightning
Yeah lightning
You struck me down like lightning, lightning
You struck me down like lightning, lightning
My stupid heart can't fight it, fight it, uhh
So tell me what you want and I'ma give it to ya
Like lightning
Blinded, blinded
You took me down, I don't mind it, mind it
My stupid heart can't fight it, fight it, uhh
So tell me what you want and I'ma give it to you
Like lightning

Charli XCX told Rolling Stone about "Lightning", "It's funny when you talk about explosions, this really genuine and beautiful love story on this album is also quite traumatic to listen back to, because this is a relationship from my past that no longer exists. Even the story within how we met is quite explosive, I suppose. I really love this song because I'm just saying exactly what happened and it feels very truthful."
