Bolt Out of the Blue Lyrics

He met his love on a rainy night

In a crowded bar, through the hazy light

She had just started her shift, he was there with friends

And her electric smile made him look again

He caught his breath, and he ordered a round

Grabbed a napkin, and scribbled his number down

He didn't normally do that kind of thing

But there was something about that girl, it seemed

Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh

Like a bolt out of the blue

Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh

Star-crossed love hit hard and true

In the warm summer glow of a July day

We gathered in the garden to celebrate

They said forever, and he lifted the veil

And we danced all night, and wished them well

A few days later they began their climb

Up the highest mountain they had ever tried

They prepared for the miles, prepared for the cold

But life throws you things you can't control

Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh

Like a bolt out of the blue

Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh

Fate can knock the wind out of you

Dark clouds built fast at the summit

Thunder clapped and roared

They started down but could not escape from it

One strike, her heart beat no more

Now every July he climbs that peak

And feels her spirit in the wind on his cheek

On that misty mountain, the rain sometimes falls

And he remembers the night that started it all

Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh

Like a bolt out of the blue

Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh

Like a bolt out of the blue
