Listen to me, baby, you gotta understand

You're old enough to know the makings of a man

Listen to me, baby, it's hard to settle down

Am I asking too much for you to stick around? Every boy wants a girl

He can trust to the very end

Baby, that's you

Won't you wait? But 'til then When I see lips beggin' to be kissed

(Stop)

I can't stop

(Stop)

I can't stop myself

(Stop, stop) Lightning's striking again

Lightning's striking again Nature's takin' over my one-track mind

Believe it or not, you're in my heart all the time

All the girls are sayin' that you'll end up a fool

For the time being, baby, live by my rules When I settle down

I want one baby on my mind

Forgive and forget

And I'll make up for all lost time If she's put together fine

And she's readin' my mind

(Stop)

I can't stop

(Stop)

I can't stop myself

(Stop, stop) Lightning's striking again

Lightning's striking again

And again and again and again Lightning's striking again

Lightning's striking again There's a chapel in the pines

Waiting for us, around the bend

Picture in your mind

Love forever, but 'til then If she gives me a sign

That she wants to make time

(Stop)

I can't stop

(Stop)

I can't stop myself

(Stop, stop) Lightning's striking again

Lightning's striking again

And again and again and again

Lightning's striking again

And again and again and again
