"Lightning In A Jar" lyrics

"Lightning In A Jar"

Like thunder in summer
Without warning, you were there
I recall your electric eyes, windswept hair

You were lightning in a jar

I'm sorry I tried to hold you
I was stricken by your charm
Should've known that you were wild
Before I trapped you in my arms

Like lightning in a jar

I still beg the skies
To bring you back my way
I've even started praying
For lightning to hit twice
Now I've lost every trace of you

So, I'm picking up the pieces
And the fragments of my heart
It wasn't strong enough to hold you
You shattered it all apart

Like lightning in a jar
You were lightning in a jar
