Like thunder in summer
Without warning, you were there
I recall your electric eyes, windswept hair
You were lightning in a jar
I'm sorry I tried to hold you
I was stricken by your charm
Should've known that you were wild
Before I trapped you in my arms
Like lightning in a jar
I still beg the skies
To bring you back my way
I've even started praying
For lightning to hit twice
Now I've lost every trace of you
So, I'm picking up the pieces
And the fragments of my heart
It wasn't strong enough to hold you
You shattered it all apart
Like lightning in a jar
You were lightning in a jar
