Oh, my lover, will you walk with me
Down the road that leads into the shadows?
Is it voices or just the wind in the trees?
Bowed over like they're prayin'
Shhh, they're sayin' something to me

Something special
Something special of my own
Something special
Something special of my own

Are you afraid to go into the graveyard
And play tag around the tombstones?
All this flesh and blood
Is now just dust and bones
Waiting, waiting for something

Something special
Something special of my own
Something special
Something special of my own

Lightnin' struck me once
Knocked me flat
Lightnin' struck me twice
Never was the same after that
Lightnin' struck me three times
Ooh, I knew that I was a singular man
Lightnin' struck me more than three times
I knew that I had found the key to the promised land

Do you have what it takes to be my lover?
Do you think you can hold up your end of the bargain?
Light the match
Let the fire burn free
Feed the flame
That will transfigure me
Transfigure me, baby

Into something special
Something special of my own
Something special, yeah
Something special of my own

Something special
Something special
Special of my own

Light the match
Let the fire burn free
Feed the flame
That will transfigure me

Light the match
Let the fire burn free
Feed the flames
That will transfigure me
Transfigure me, baby

Light the match
Let the fire burn free
Feed the flames
That will transfigure me

Light the match
Let the fire burn free
Feed the flames
That will transfigure me
Into something
Into something
Into something
Into something special
