Light Up The World

Thinking back, could I feel much older?

And my stance couldn't feel much colder

Can they tell what I'm getting over now?

In the park, I've seen you walking

And in my dreams I've heard you talking

Can they tell what I'm getting over now?

'cause you light up the world

Yeah, you light up the world

In this time and times to come

I do not know if your hopes have won

I do not know where you think, you'll find it

And I do not care if I fall behind

Thinking back, I was so much younger

Thinking back, you were so much more tender

Thinking back, will it make me hunger now?

For you, light up the world

Yeah you, light up the world

Well, there's somethin' about the girl

There's somethin' about her world

There's somethin' for everyone

Have you found yourself in the frame of mind?

Where no-one can be too kind

And there's so little lost

There must be a life to trust there

And if I try I know, I'll be there

And hold and be mine

For you, light up the world

Yeah you, light up the world

Oh, there's somethin' about the girl

Yeah, there's somethin' about her world

Oh, there's somethin' for everyone

Somethin' for everyone
