I never cared much for moonlit skies,
I never wink back at fire flies,
But now that the stars are in you eyes,
I'm beginning to see the light.
I never went in for afterglow
Or candlelight on the mistletoe,
But now when you turn the lamp down low,
I'm beginning to see the light.
Used to ramble through the park
Shadow boxing in the dark;
Then you came and caused a spark
That's a four-alarm fire now.
I never made love by lantern shine,
I never saw rainbows in my wine,
But now that your lips are burning mine,
I'm beginning to see the light.
