Lightning

Can lightning strike me twice?
Can the power from heaven find
a person to love again?
Once in my life, I heard the rolling thunder,
and I fell for a woman who was a
perfect match for an independent
person I was brought up to be.
It took an army of angels to see
that she was the only one for me.
Now I hear the distant sky roar
in the night as the rain starts to pour.
I wonder, do I deserve more?
Can lightning strike twice or is
it just a feeling I need to hide?
One love is all I need in my life.
