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'll 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 your friends are never gone If you look to the sky and pray Bright lights like white lightning Who shot me down, who'll 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 the same old cannonball Coming back for your heart again Bright lights like white lightning Who shot me down, who'll 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
