(Ellington / Hodges / George / James)
|
I never cared much for moonlit skies,
|
Never winked back at fireflies,
|
But now that the stars are in your 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.
|
|
I used to ramble through the park
|
Shadow boxing in the dark
|
Then you came and caused the 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.

You know I used to ramble through the park
|
Shadow boxing in the dark
|
Then you came and lit that 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.
