| I used to be | |
| The lucky one. | |
| My only task, | |
| To bask in sun. | |
| My golden years | |
| Came so suddenly. | |
| Now I just try to pretend | |
| It doesn’t torture me. | |
| Loosin' all I ever wanted. | |
| Learnin’ what I really need, | |
| I made lightning in a bottle, | |
| But I forgot the recipe. | |
| If you had seen | |
| My golden hair | |
| Fallin' down around | |
| My shoulders, bare, | |
| You'd have done for me | |
| What ever I asked you to. | |
| Now when you look at me | |
| I feel you seein' through. | |
| Why won't the time | |
| Come back to me? | |
| And why didn’t I | |
| Grab ahold and seize | |
| All the days I spent | |
| Lyin` there, in the sun, | |
| Prayin` for some way | |
| To make a little fun? | |
| My golden years | |
| Came so suddenly. | |
| Now I just try to pretend | |
| It doesn't torture me. | |
| Loosin' all I ever wanted. | |
| Oh, learnin’ what I really need, | |
| I made lightning in a bottle, | |
| But I forgot the recipe. | |
| Oh, I made lightning in a bottle, | |
| But I.... forgot the recipe. |
