[Verse 1]
And I didn't know how to love
And I didn't know to cry
And I didn't know how to run
And I just want to fly away
A coward only stays, stays

[Hook 1]
I'd rather be struck by lightning
Than break it off tonight
I'd rather be struck by lightning
Than try to make you cry
Than try to make you cry

[Verse 2]
And I thought I knew how to care
And I thought I knew how to try
And I thought if I held her close
I can make, I can make
I can make her laugh again
But a coward only stays as friends

[Hook 2] (x2)
I’d rather be struck by lightning
Than break it off tonight
I’d rather be struck by lightning
Than try to make you cry

[Post-Hook]
And I wait for sky to clear
And I wish I'd disappear

[Bridge]
I can never be your love
I can never be your love
I can never be your love
Your love

[Hook 2] (x2)

[Outro] (x2)
And I wait for sky to clear
And I wish I'd disappear
