Lazy Lightnin' Lyrics

Lazy lightnin' sleepy fire in your eyes it's like desire in disguise
I keep on tryin' but I, I can't get through
Lazy lightnin' I'd like to find the proper potion
That's gonna capture your emotion
You're right beside me but I, I can't get through

You're a loop of lazy lightnin', just a loop of lazy lightnin'
Must admit you're kinda frightnin' but you really get me high
So exciting, when I hear your velvet thunder
You seem so near I start to wonder
Would you come closer if, if I asked you to?

So inviting, the way you're messing with my reason
It's an exception but it's pleasing
Tell me a lie and I will swear, I'll swear it's true

You're a loop of lazy lightnin'
(Lazy lightnin')
Just a loop of lazy lightnin'
(Lazy lightnin')
Must admit you're kinda frightening
Just a loop of lazy lightnin'

Put the fire in my eyes
(Lightnin')
Put the fire every time
(Lightnin')
Put the fire in my heart
(Lightnin')
Well come on lazy lightnin'
Just a loop of lazy lightnin'

Misty lightning, well you always electrify me
Someday I know you'll satisfy me
And all that lightnin' will be my lightnin' too

My lightnin' too
(My lightnin' too)
Just a loop of lazy lightnin'
(My lightnin' too)
My lightnin' too
(My lightnin' too)

Just a loop of lazy lightnin'
(My lightnin' too)
My lightnin' too
(My lightnin' too)
Oh come on lazy lightnin'
(My lightnin' too)
