Lyrics
So I'm back, to the velvet
underground
Back to the floor, that I love
To a room with some lace
and paper flowers
Back to the gypsy
that I was
To the gypsy...
that I was
And it all comes down to you
Well, you know that it does
Well, lightning strikes,
maybe once, maybe twice
Ah, and it lights up the night
And you see your gypsy
You see your gypsy
To the gypsy that remains
faces freedom with a little fear
I have no fear, I have only love
And if I was a child
And the child was enough
Enough for me to love
Enough to love
She is dancing away from me now
She was just a wish
She was just a wish
And a memory is all
that is left for you now
You see your gypsy
You see your gypsy
Lightning strikes,
maybe once, maybe twice
And it all comes down to you
And it all comes down to you
Lightning strikes,
maybe once, maybe twice
And it all comes down to you
I still see your bright eyes,
bright eyes
And it all comes down to you
I still see your bright eyes,
bright eyes
And it all comes down to you
I still see your bright eyes,
bright eyes
(She was just a wish)
(She was just a wish)
And it all comes down to you
Lightning strikes,
maybe once, maybe twice
And it all comes down to you
