What the thunder said

I am the woman on the ice floe
Thunderstruck Woman
frozen and alone
the one struck by lightning

I am the woman in the graveyard
Thunderstruck Woman
rescuing the bones
the one struck by lightning

I am the woman at the crossroads
Thunderstruck Woman
wayward and menacing
the one struck by lightning

I am the woman in the rainbow
Thunderstruck Woman
revealing the gold
lightning, lightning
