Now I'm dying to forget you
And that is what I know
Though I dreamed I would fall
Like a wounded cannonball
Sinking down with my heart in tow
Bright lights like white lightning
Who shot me down
Who will cut me down
I'm frozen in my bed till the day comes around
How I'm lost
How I'm found
There's a man all alone
Telling me his friends are gone
That they've died and flown away
So I told him he was wrong
That you friends are never gone
If you look to the sky and pray
Bright lights like white lightning
Who shot me down
Who will cut me down
I'm frozen in my bed till the day comes around
How I'm lost
How I'm found
Someone told me a lie
Someone looked me in the eye
And said time will ease your pain
But behold, when you fall
It's that same old cannonball
Coming back for your heart again
Bright lights like white lightning
Who shot me down
Who will cut me down
I'm frozen in my bed till the day comes around
And it may come around
Until the day comes around
How I'm lost
How I'm found
I was born when I met you
Now I'm dying to forget you
And that is what I know
I was born when I met you Now I'm dying to forget you And that is what I know Though I dreamed I would fall Like a wounded cannonball Sinking down with my heart in tow Bright lights like white lightning Who shot me down Who will cut me down I'm frozen in my bed till the day comes around How I'm lost How I'm found There's a man all alone Telling me his friends are gone That they've died and flown away So I told him he was wrong That you friends are never gone If you look to the sky and pray Bright lights like white lightning Who shot me down Who will cut me down I'm frozen in my bed till the day comes around How I'm lost How I'm found Someone told me a lie Someone looked me in the eye And said time will ease your pain But behold, when you fall It's that same old cannonball Coming back for your heart again Bright lights like white lightning Who shot me down Who will cut me down I'm frozen in my bed till the day comes around And it may come around Until the day comes around How I'm lost How I'm found I was born when I met you Now I'm dying to forget you And that is what I know Explain Request ×
