Lady A – Bottle Up Lightning lyrics

[Verse 1)
Look me up when you're back in town
You know the number, I'll be around
Doing what I do
I'm living my life as a simple man
And being alright with where I am
But when it comes to you, when it comes to you

[Chorus]
I wish I would have taken a few more chances
Spun you 'round the room, a few more dances
Just for once, look past these fences
Followed your heart, over that horizon
Never looking back, just keep on driving
But holding you is just like trying to bottle up lightning

[Verse 2]
There's one little voice on the selfish side
That's dying to tell you 'don't say goodbye'
But I can't make you stay
We might steal a day or a couple weeks
But sooner or later you'll find your wings
And you'll just fly away and you'll hear me say

[Chorus]
I wish I would have taken a few more chances
Spun you 'round the room, a few more dances
Just for once, look past these fences
Followed your heart, over that horizon
Never looking back, just keep on driving
But holding you is just like trying to bottle up lightning

I wish I would have taken a few more chances
Spun you 'round the room, a few more dances
Just for once, look past these fences
Followed your heart, over that horizon
Never looking back, just keep on driving
But holding you is just like trying to bottle up lightning
To bottle up lightning
