You turned on a light
And suddenly I could see
All the love I'd been missing
The love denied to me
It was then I came alive
It was then you opened the door
It was then I breathed my first breath
From that moment on
And forever more
Woke me up from my slumber
Wiped the sleep from my eyes
Said, It's time to go my love
Just a word to the wise
I had lived so stupidly
I had hurt and I had been cruel
I had lived so thoughtlessly
I had lived like a fool
But then you came along
And you sent me back to school
Love to watch your hands
Love how they swim in the air
Love the sound of your voice
Lifts me from my despair
You turned on a light
And suddenly I was wide awake
You showed me my heart
And how easily it could break
