When I was 16, I found your songs I listened to them over and over again On my car stereo while making deliveries I almost wore out the cassette tape There's no doubt about it You brought light into my boring daily life You are my light You always let me forget my sadness (You are my light) You are my light You always keep my dreams from falling apart We'll always stay young and keep dreaming our dreams now and forever more Every time I listen to your songs I always feel it's right The years passed and I listened to my own demo with my bad guitar as I worked I listened countless times and rewrote it I had to be better than you, I sighed… My troubles never seemed to end But I still had a blast each and every day You are my light You always let me forget my sadness (You are my light) You are my light You always keep my dreams from falling apart We'll always stay young and keep dreaming our dreams now and forever more Every time I listen to your songs I always feel it's right A pile of crumpled up paper A pen rolls across my desk I was lost in my thoughts alone in my room wishing I could see you someday The words float and sink My ashtray is overflowing with cigarette butts The sunlight comes through the curtain It's morning again, I laugh… You are my light You always let me forget my sadness (You are my light) You are my light You always keep my dreams from falling apart We'll always stay young and keep dreaming our dreams now and forever more Every time I listen to your songs I always feel it's right (feel it's right) I always feel it's right (feel it's right) I always feel it's right You are my light…
