Once I Was the Light Of Your Life
Written by - Hugh Prestwood
From - Hopechest
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 wrote to me
Was a Valentine
These days all we've got to say
Is 'How you doin'?'
''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 a 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 wrote 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...

Once I was the light of your life
You really made me shine
Every letter that you wrote 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
