  • Alright

    It's my move, the ground's shakin'
    This time I'm gonna knock you down
    I'm comin' through, no more waitin'
    I'm on the move at the speed of sound

    I'm alive like a hurricane flies
    I don't run, I don't walk the line
    When the sky and the worlds collide
    It's my time, I'm gonna take what's mine

    Live wire and loaded gun
    Get ready 'cause I'm the one

    When lightning strikes
    I howl in the rain and thunder
    The fire ignites
    A flash of light electrifies my heart and my soul
    And lightning's gonna strike tonight

    Hold on if you're comin'
    Let go if you're stayin' behind
    I feel the need, the sky is hummin'
    I'll take the lead and it's my time to shine

    I'm alive, got the power inside
    Wrong or right, they call me dynamite
    High voltage, runnin' free
    Unleash the storm that's inside of me

    Black cloud and the rebel sun
    Get ready 'cause I'm the one

    When lightning strikes
    I howl in the rain and thunder
    The fire ignites
    A flash of light

    When lightning strikes
    I howl in the rain and thunder
    The fire ignites
    When lightning strikes
    When lightning strikes
    When lightning strikes
    The fire ignites
    When lightning strikes, electrifies my heart and my soul Writer/s: PAUL STANLEY, TOMMY C. THAYER
