Katharine McPhee
Love Strikes
[Verse 1]
Summer fades and winter takes its dreary place
That’s what I have seen
Love is failure and I never win the race
That’s what I believed

[Chorus]
If love strikes once and one time only
All I’d have is broken dreams inside of me
But my hands trace love hearts around you
And what you see is how my color scream
That love is striking me

[Verse 2]
Thought I’d spend the greatest years curled up alone
Without someone to kiss my neck
Thought I’d feel the winter cold more than anyone
‘Cause I wouldn’t have the family that I dreamed since I was born

[Chorus]
If love strikes once and one time only
All I’d have is broken dreams inside of me
But my hands trace love hearts around you
And what you see is how my color scream
That love is striking me
[Bridge]
You came late, but I left the light on for you, babe
I never let my hurt burn my hope away
And now I give you all that I saved
Summer fades and winter takes its dreary place
But now look at the smile on my face
His love, love is striking me

[Chorus]
If love strikes once and one time only
All I’d have is broken dreams inside of me
But my hands trace love hearts around you
And what you see is how my color scream
Love is striking me
