Lyrics
There ain't no way that I could ever forget you
Expressing inability to forget someone
I can't remember why I ever went and left you
Reflecting on the reason for leaving and a sense of forgetfulness
Maybe I was hitting my head
Suggesting confusion or frustration
Maybe must've been something that I said
Speculating on a possible cause for separation
Baby I want to take it back tonight
Expressing a desire to undo past actions
Oh oh oh oh
Repetition for emphasis on not needing extra persuasion
Oh oh oh oh
-You don't have to tell me twice
Confidence in understanding without repetition
When lightning strikes
Metaphorically describing a realization, comparing it to lightning striking
Oh oh oh oh
-Oh oh oh oh
-You don't have to tell me twice
-When lightning strikes
-So obvious that I wasn't seeing clearly
Acknowledging a lack of clarity or understanding
'Cause right before my eyes you were disappearing
Expressing surprise or regret about someone disappearing
If I could just go back in time
Expressing a desire to change the past and avoid mistakes
Say the words that blow your mind
-Loaning less is such a crime
-There ain't a thing I wanna do
Stating a strong desire to do something
I wanna do yeah
-Maybe I wouldn't have been so
Reflecting on past behavior as irrational
Crazy I was stupid letting you go
Expressing regret for a previous decision
Baby I want to take it back tonight
Reiterating the desire to undo past actions
Oh oh oh oh
Repetition for emphasis on understanding without persuasion
Oh oh oh oh
-You don't have to tell me twice
Confidence in understanding without repetition
When lighting strikes
Metaphorically describing a realization, comparing it to lightning striking
Oh oh oh oh
-Oh oh oh oh
-You don't have to tell me twice
-When lighting strikes
-Why can't I
Expressing frustration or confusion about communication
Let you know
-Why can't I
-Oh oh oh oh
Repetition emphasizing no need for extra communication
No oh oh oh oh
-You don't have to tell me twice
-You don't have to tell me twice
-Oh oh ooh
Repetition emphasizing understanding without additional communication
Oh oh oh oh
-You don't have to tell me twice
-When lighting strikes
-You don't have to tell me twice
Reiteration of the realization when lightning strikes
When lightning strikes
