"Lightning" lyrics - BRITISH LION

Hello my old friend of mine
Hope that you are doing fine
Heard that you were in that place
I see that look upon your face
Come home and return to us
Come home let us fix you up again

I came across a man today
He stopped me in my tracks to say
He said that he'd been sent to us
To spread the word about the one
I looked at him, he at me
Could see the pain deep within
He just turned and walked away
And in a flash was gone

How far we've come
How far we've gone
Come talk to me
It's pretend, it's make believe
As I breathe in your soul
It's you and me over God

The innocent who have a past
I see no future that will last
May you shine, forever glow
May you reap what you sow
The future is for those who believe
In the beauty of their dreams
My ancestors long and gone
But you can see them in my eyes

How low we go
To reach the high
Come talk to me
It's pretend, it's make believe
As I breathe in your soul
It's you and me over God

[Solo]

To reach so high!
Come talk to me
It's pretend, it's make believe
As I breathe in your soul
It's you and me over God

There's life in your eyes
Can your truth cut through these lies
You show me the way
I choose life over death

The innocent who have a past
I see no future that will last
May you shine, forever glow
May you reap what you sow
The future is for those who believe
In the beauty of their dreams
My ancestors long and gone
But you can see them in my eyes
