Carolyn Shulman - 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
