Girl I guess 
I've been forgiving; 
I've acquired a taste for living
Just when 
I was close to giving up the ghost; and 
I be what 
I believeAbout as often as 
I can be and 
I maybe can be oftener than most;
And if the best 
I have to offer is the chances you will be taking with 
The heart that you will be breaking if you lose; well 
I can't tell you how to 
Take it; girl 
I know you know the answer darling tell me one more time 
Before you choose, did you feel a little lighting, did you feel a little thunder,
That was barely running under your control; was it just 
A little frightening, as 
He stared into the wonder of the deep and starry splendor of your soul; 
I won't be 
Surprised to see you heading down the highway just like every dream 
I never see 
Come true; look for me to go on living; if you loving me or leaving darling tell me 
One more time before you do; did you feel a little lighting, did you feel a little
Thunder; that was barely running under your control; was it just a little frightening 
When he stared into the wonder of the deep and starry 
Splendor of your soul.
