emily scott robinson - lightning in a bottle lyrics

the summer that i turned nineteen was a hundred shades of green
i just wanted to be seen
heavy like the air before it rains, clean like grass and summer sage
i lost track of all the days
warm like the sunshine on the pines, fresh tomatoes off the vine
pickin’ peaches for the pie
cold, like that first beer on my lips and those midnight skinny dips
careful like your kiss

lightning in a bottle, if only i had known
i’d be back here after twenty years driving down this road
wondering where that girl has gone and how to bring her back
missing life when it was easier and love when it was magic

dark like that trail through the woods, sneaking out late when we could
my hand in yours fit good
bright like venus on the rise in the early morning sky
i grew up that night
breathless, heart pounding in my chest, i placed your hand upon my breast and surrendered to the rest

and every dream i had back then is finally coming true
but last night i found the letter that i kept for years from you
and i wonder if i lost something somewhere along the way
i came back to find the piece of my heart buried in this place
lightning in a bottle, if only i had known
that summer flames burn out so just enjoy the afterglow
that time is touching all of us and the years are coming fast
missing life when it was easier and love
oh, love
