    So after listening to this song over 300 times, I've come to the conclusion that this is hands down one of the top five best reggae songs I've ever heard in my life.

    To quote Mortimer from a particular article on this song:
    “‘Lightning’ is a song I wrote for my wife and I wanted the video to stay true to that,” shares the artist over email. “The video features my wife and our children towards the end. I wanted the vibe to feel as natural as possible, with the person I feel naturally comfortable with and around. That person who has been there for me all these years through thick and thin, ups and downs, frowns and laughter. This video is dedicated to her.”
    Their love literally permeates through the screen into all our hearts

    I just found this song recently, and I've played it three times already just today. The words, the water, the video, the children, this man and his family, was nothing less than pure beauty. I am in love with this song and everything that they put together for the visual. There wasn't a dark club, no half naked women, no cussing, no side chick, no jewelry, no liquor, just natural and untouched beauty. God bless you and your beautiful family 🤎

  • @El-Sanccho
    @El-Sanccho ปีที่แล้ว +85

    Your love struck me down, Lightning
    Thunder in my soul, baby
    My heart beats for you only
    Every word is true
    I'm in love with you
    Take you as you are lady
    You ain't gotta change for me
    Need you from your crown, honey
    Right down to the soul of your very feet
    Girl, my love grows stronger
    Each day baby please
    Don't hurt me just because
    You know I'll forgive
    Girl, my love grows stronger
    Each day baby please
    Don't hurt me just because
    You know I'll forgive
    Hold me until we die
    Weather together the storms of life
    Won't always be sunshine
    Baby we're blends of imperfection
    Give me your heart and soul
    Love me like you've never loved before
    Beautiful morning dew
    I'll be your shoulder to cry on to
    Girl, my love grows stronger
    Each day baby please
    Don't hurt me just because
    You know I'll forgive
    Girl, my love grows stronger
    Each day baby please
    Don't hurt me just because
    You know I'll forgive
    You ain't gotta worry 'bout a thing, girl
    Heaven every time you let me in, girl
    I know you've been waiting for a King, girl
    Oh, wait no more
    Girl, my love grows stronger
    Each day baby please
    Don't hurt me just because
    You know I'll forgive
    Girl my love grows stronger
    Each day baby please
    Don't hurt me just because
    You know I'll forgive
    As the years go by we get older
    And with experience, we get wiser
    And our love burns bright like a fire
    Oh make my soul explode with desire
    I'd go crazy without your love
    Oh how could I go on
    You're my favorite drug
    'Cause your love feels warm in the winter
    Oh I've never felt
    What I feel with you
    Girl, my love grows stronger
    Each day baby please
    Don't hurt me just because
    You know I'll forgive
    Girl, my love grows stronger
    Each day baby please
    Don't hurt me just because
    You know I'll forgive

    Listening to this along with seeing the two children playing with each other innocently takes me back to my childhood in Jamaica. I actually smell the hills of Gordon Town, the winding curves of the countryside of St.Ann and more in this song.
    I’m a fan- BIG UP yuhself Mortimer. You are representing our Likkle Jamaica VERY WELL with this masterpiece.

    LYRICS:
    Your love struck me down, Lightning
    Thunder in my soul, baby
    My heart beats for you only
    Every word is true
    I'm in love with you
    Take you as you are lady
    You ain't gotta change for me
    Need you from your crown, honey
    Right down to the soul of your very feet
    Girl, my love grows stronger
    Each day baby please
    Don't hurt me just because
    You know I'll forgive
    Girl, my love grows stronger
    Each day baby please
    Don't hurt me just because
    You know I'll forgive
    Hold me until we die
    Weather together the storms of life
    Won't always be sunshine
    Baby we're blends of imperfection
    Give me your heart and soul
    Love me like you've never loved before
    Beautiful morning dew
    I'll be your shoulder to cry on to
    Girl, my love grows stronger
    Each day baby please
    Don't hurt me just because
    You know I'll forgive
    Girl, my love grows stronger
    Each day baby please
    Don't hurt me just because
    You know I'll forgive
    You ain't gotta worry 'bout a thing, girl
    Heaven every time you let me in, girl
    I know you've been waiting for a King, girl
    Oh, wait no more
    Girl, my love grows stronger
    Each day baby please
    Don't hurt me just because
    You know I'll forgive
    Girl my love grows stronger
    Each day baby please
    Don't hurt me just because
    You know I'll forgive
    As the years go by we get older
    And with experience, we get wiser
    And our love burns bright like a fire

    I grew up in the country and this video throws me back to a time when we walked home from school, picking fruits, playing games, hitching rides, trodding through fields with not a single care in the world. We just looked forward to doing it all over again the next day. I watch this video, listen to this song a million times and it never gets old.

    Dunno if there is a Lyrics in the comments down below, but here you go:
    Your love struck me down, Lightning
    Thunder in my soul, baby
    My heart beats for you only
    Every word is true
    I'm in love with you
    Take you as you are lady
    You ain't gotta change for me
    Need you from your crown, honey
    Right down to the soul of your very feet
    Girl, my love grows stronger
    Each day baby please
    Don't hurt me just because
    You know I'll forgive
    Girl, my love grows stronger
    Each day baby please
    Don't hurt me just because
    You know I'll forgive
    Hold me until we die
    Weather together the storms of life
    Won't always be sunshine
    Baby we're blends of imperfection
    Give me your heart and soul
    Love me like you've never loved before
    Beautiful morning dew
    I'll be your shoulder to cry on to
    Girl, my love grows stronger
    Each day baby please
    Don't hurt me just because
    You know I'll forgive
    Girl, my love grows stronger
    Each day baby please
    Don't hurt me just because
    You know I'll forgive
    You ain't gotta worry 'bout a thing, girl
    Heaven every time you let me in, girl
    I know you've been waiting for a King, girl
    Oh, wait no more
    Girl, my love grows stronger
    Each day baby please
    Don't hurt me just because
    You know I'll forgive
    Girl my love grows stronger
    Each day baby please
    Don't hurt me just because
    You know I'll forgive
    As the years go by we get older
    And with experience, we get wiser
    And our love burns bright like a fire
    Oh make my soul explode with desire
    I'd go crazy without your love
    Oh how could I go on
    You're my favorite drug
    'Cause your love feels warm in the winter
    Oh I've never felt
    What I feel with you
    Girl, my love grows stronger
    Each day baby please
    Don't hurt me just because
    You know I'll forgive
    Girl, my love grows stronger
    Each day baby please
    Don't hurt me just because
    You know I'll forgive
