Lightning Strike by Keeping North
Inspired by an overnight, post-gig road trip from East Germany to Amsterdam, fuelled by too many schnapps and motivated by the need to make the stage in time for a Belgian festival, the fictional love story ‘Lightning Strike’ is the second single from Keeping North’s forthcoming debut album ‘Demons & Dreamers.’

Lyrics
Driving
Heading to Amsterdam
Wondering
If you’ll still be there
Old school
I got your telegram
Saying
You think I don’t care
Ooh looking at the lightning strike
Thinking that it can’t come twice
Maybe it can shed some light
Late night
Listening to the radio
Stop in Berlin
Drinking cold tea
Dark sky
Putting on a pretty show
Don’t know
If you’re waiting for me
Ooh looking at the lightning strike
Thinking that it can’t come twice
Maybe it can shed some light
Dawn breaks
There’s about an hour or more
Raining
Slowing my parade
Knowing
We’ve been down this road before
Thinking
That our hopes will just fade
Ooh looking at the lightning strike
Thinking that it can’t come twice
Maybe it can shed some light

Songs can come from anywhere. From adventures, from history, from matters of the heart. Most of the songs on ‘Demons & Dreamers’ come from our imagination. Little pieces of fiction, other peoples’ made-up stories. But perhaps inspired by the real world and lives well-lived….
