LYRICS:
Crazy superstitions on my mind Could they help me get you back for good? Such a striking combination gone away Could I save it if I knock on wood? Did I have a chance and fail to keep it? Lose my dream and let it slip away? Will my destiny remain a secret? Well that's okay yeah Everyone should have a reason to believe So I still believe That lightning could strike twice for me Yeah, yeah, yeah Every time I find a feeling's gonna be Suddenly I see That lightning could strike twice for me Yeah, yeah, yeah Sitting down to read the stars again Maybe they can tell me what's in store Now I'm mixing up a magic potion That's gonna get you banging on my door Did I have a chance and fail to keep it? Lose my dream and let it slip away? Will my destiny remain a secret? Well that's okay yeah Everyone should have a reason to believe So I still believe That lightning could strike twice for me Yeah, yeah, yeah Every time I find a feeling's gonna be Suddenly I see That lightning could strike twice for me Yeah, yeah, yeah And I'm working on a silent song Oh baby, oh baby Got a feeling that it won't be long Oh baby oh baby Well don't you know that Everyone should have a reason to believe So I still believe That lightning could strike twice for me Yeah, yeah, yeah Every time I find a feeling's gonna be Suddenly I see That lightning could strike twice for me Yeah, yeah, yeah
