Lyric Once I Was The Light Of Your Life

(Hugh Prestwood)

I see you stranger standing there
Far across the room
Do you remember when Forth Worth
was in bloom

You know it wasn t all that long ago
That we were in the dark
One touch would light up the
whole would with a spark

No one here tonight would guess how
wrapped up we were

Once I was the light of your life
You really made me shine
Every letter that you sent to me
Was a valentine
These days all we ve got to say
Is how you doin, I m fine
But once I was the light of your life
And you were the light of mine

Maybe the planets didn t line up right
Maybe the time was wrong
Maybe forever was a little bit too long

But still we had about as fine of time
As two true lovers could
Before the magic was up and gone for good

Even though I m not much more than
a shadow now

Once I was the light of your life
You really made me shine
Every letter that you sent to me
Was a valentine
These days all we ve got to say
Is how you doin, I m fine
But once I was the light of your life
And you were the light of mine
