Lightning & Snow Lyrics - Singles - Woods Of Ypres

There was a flash of lightning, Followed by snow 

In a moment of silence (for myself), After a shock to the soul 

With a look of disbelief, Alone and numb to the cold 

I knew the last moment had passed, Before enduring years of sorrow 

There was a crack of electric light, coming down from a darkened sky 

My dreams flashed before my eyes, as they were erased from my life. 

There was a flash of lightning, Followed by snow 

'Twas just the moment of change, Before years of sorrow 

The shock and awe, the fright and woe 

I only had one life to live, and life said no. 

The loss of love, has left me hollow 

All bliss twists into pain, Where there was joy, years of grief have followed! 

There was a flash of lightning, followed by snow 

It struck my heart, only once...which made me want it more 

The emptiness it left in me, will always need to be filled 

For it will be there all the time, from now on, forever more. 

There was a crack of electric light, coming down from a darkened sky 

My dreams flashed before my eyes, AS they were erased from my life. 

There was a flash of lightning, Followed by snow 

Twas just a moment of pain, Before years of sorrow 

The shock and awe, the fright and woe 

And when I asked for a second chance, life said no.
