So many nights I'd sit by my window
Waiting for someone to sing me his song
So many dreams I kept deep inside me
Alone in the dark
But now you've come along and...

You light up my life*
You give me hope to carry on
You light up my days
And fill my nights with song

Rolling at sea adrift on the water
Could it be finally I'm turning for home
Finally a chance to say "Hey I love you"
Never again to be all alone, 'cause...

* Repeat

'Cause you, you light up my life
You give me hope to carry on
You light up my days
And fill my nights with song

It can't be wrong when it feels so right
'Cause you, you light up my life
