Imelda Kehoe – Lightning Tree lyrics

You said, that there’s a hole in your life the size of Australia
I know, that kind of thing cannot be good for you
And I know, and I’m trying to find the positives to say
I’ll hold the living hells to ransom for it
I know I said but I really meant it, I will be the lightning tree
I’ll take the heat, I’m easy to find and you can count on me
If all we had, was only one day, to say everything
No need, for you and I to say a thing

They said, that you might never see it through to the end
It’s like, you’re on a Ninety mile straight with a blindfold over your head
No need, for you and I to talk about it
I’ll keep the bright side on dark of it
I know I said but I really meant it, I will be the lightning tree
I’ll take the heat, I’m easy to find and you can count on me
If all we had, was only one day, to say everything
No need, for you and I to say a thing

Oh, this is, a great big shining day for someone else
It’s like, you’re lost in the dessert with the Sun in your mouth
If our lives, were a film, wouldn’t it be good to see
I know, because I’ll be playing it on and on repeat
I know I said but I really meant it, I will be the lightning tree
I’ll take the heat, I’m easy to find and you can count on me
If all we had, was only one day, to say everything
You and I, wouldn’t have to say a thing
