Bottle up lightning

Look me up when you´re back in town
You know the number, I´ll be around
Doing what I do
Been livin´ my life as a simple man
And bein´ alright with where I am
But when it comes to you
When it comes to you
I wish I would´ve taken a few more chances
Spun you ´round the room a few more dances
Just for once look past these fences
Followed your heart over that horizon
Never lookin´ back, just keep on drivin´
But holdin´ you is just like tryin´
To bottle up lightnin´
There´s one little voice on the selfish side
That´s dyin´ to tell you "don´t say goodbye"
But I can´t make you stay
You might stay a day or a couple weeks
But sooner or later you find your wings
And you just fly away
And you hear me say:
I wish I would´ve taken a few more chances
Spun you ´round the room a few more dances
Just for once look past these fences
Followed your heart over that horizon
Never lookin´ back, just keep on drivin´
But holdin´ you is just like tryin´
To bottle up lightnin´
I wish I would´ve taken a few more chances
Spun you ´round the room a few more dances
Just for once look past these fences
Followed your heart over that horizon
Never lookin´ back, just keep on drivin´
But holdin´ you is just like tryin´
To bottle up lightnin´
To bottle up lightnin´
You know the number, I´ll be around
Doing what I do
Been livin´ my life as a simple man
And bein´ alright with where I am
But when it comes to you
When it comes to you
I wish I would´ve taken a few more chances
Spun you ´round the room a few more dances
Just for once look past these fences
Followed your heart over that horizon
Never lookin´ back, just keep on drivin´
But holdin´ you is just like tryin´
To bottle up lightnin´
There´s one little voice on the selfish side
That´s dyin´ to tell you "don´t say goodbye"
But I can´t make you stay
You might stay a day or a couple weeks
But sooner or later you find your wings
And you just fly away
And you hear me say:
I wish I would´ve taken a few more chances
Spun you ´round the room a few more dances
Just for once look past these fences
Followed your heart over that horizon
Never lookin´ back, just keep on drivin´
But holdin´ you is just like tryin´
To bottle up lightnin´
I wish I would´ve taken a few more chances
Spun you ´round the room a few more dances
Just for once look past these fences
Followed your heart over that horizon
Never lookin´ back, just keep on drivin´
But holdin´ you is just like tryin´
To bottle up lightnin´
To bottle up lightnin´
