"Like Lightning" lyrics - IDINA MENZEL

Looking for a girl I used to know
She used to walk these city streets
Going anywhere the wind will blow
She used to look a bit like me
But someday I'm gonna find her again
And I'm gonna tell her the truth
Shake them by the shoulders, make a scene, nobody is fireproof

Just live and learn, you will get burn
But you'll get your turn
If you keep fighting

All my life, is lighting up in front of me
All this time, I felt that I was running to the sun
Seems that I'm the only one too blind
To see the fire inside me
Like lightning trying to get out
All my life

Looking for a sing along the way, dying to finally get back home
And I'm forever trying to keep the faith
Praying but it's a lonely road
Hope is lesson I've learned
Hope it's the best way to burn
And I'll get my turn
If I keep fighting (fighting)

All my life, is lighting up in front of me
All this time, I felt that I was running to the sun
Seems that I'm the only one too blind
To see the fire inside me
Like lightning trying to get out
All my life
All my life

I'm gonna find that girl some how
I'm gonna finally ignited
What would the future may said now
I wanna know, am I turn all right

All my life, is lighting up in front of me
All this time, I thought that I was running to the sun
Seems that I'm the only one too blind
To see the fire inside me
Like lightning
(All my life)
Like a lighting
(All my life)
Like a lighting

Seems that I'm the only one too blind
To see the fire inside me
Like lightning trying to get out
All my life
