From the recording Lightning's Goodbye
Lyrics
LIGHTNING’S GOODBYE ©Kelly Brightwell 2007
She’s so far away
She’s counting the miles; she’s counting the days
She’s waiting for saviors who never arrive
Thunder’s the sound of the lightning’s goodbye
Now she can’t feel the pain
And she rides out to meet it; it’s her last hurricane
The storm rushes in and she closes her eyes
Thunder’s the sound of the lightning’s goodbye
In all of the noise, what you hear is her voice
And it’s singing, it’s singing
Like the bell of the world had been struck
And you heard it still ringing
It’s still ringing…
You can’t change the rain
But it’s all we can talk about; it’s all we can’t say
Just notice the clouds as they’re crossing the sky
Thunder’s the sound of the lightning’s goodbye
Thunder’s the sound of the lightning’s goodbye
It’s just the sound of the lightning
