When the Lightning Strikes Smokie

It’s close to midnight
There’s a chill in the air
I long to touch you
But I don’t dare

There’s a wall between us
There’s a storm in the air
Though you’re lying beside me
It’s like you’re not even there

When the lightning strikes
I don’t want to here
When the cold wind bites
I don’t want to be here

Well the day of silence
Ooh, it hurts me
Though we won’t be talking
I hear every word you say

Now the rain is falling
Like a million tears
Coming through my window
To wash away the years

When the lightning strikes
I don’t want to here
When the cold wind bites
I don’t want to be here
