I never thought I'd ever get tired of playing games

But I've been holding back for too long

Now the time has come to get it right

Now's the time to show them all that they're wrong



'Cos they said thunder and they said lightning

It would never strike twice

Oh but if that's true, why can't you tell me

How come this feels so nice, Oh it feels alright



Never ever did believe in guiding lights

'Cos what you didn't hold, slipped away

Oh but there's a feeling deep down in my shoe

'Cos things look like they're going my way



'Cos they say thunder and they say lightning

It would never strike twice

Oh but if that's true, why can't you tell me

How come this feels so nice, Oh it feels alright



I never ever did believe in a second chance

You get, just one crack of the whip, that's all

If you played the game, you got treated right

Oh but I'm not playing the game, no more



'Cos they say thunder and they say lightning

It would never strike twice

Oh but if that's true, why can't you tell me

How come this feels so nice, Oh it feels alright
