[Chorus]
She lights up
When she sees me
And I still
Don't know why
Oh, but I won't beg the question
I'll just bask in her affection
She lights up

[Verse 1]
When she walks into a room (Walks into a room)
And ceases every shade of gloom (Every shade of gloom)
Must be that twinkle in her eye (In her eye)
Must be that infectious smile (Infectious smile)
I had forgotten what was wrong (Forgotten what was wrong)
Why was I singing a sad song? (Singing a sad song?)
Every aspect of my life (Of my life)
Is that much better by her side (By her side)

[Chorus]
She lights up
When she sees me
And I still
Don't know why (Oh, oh)
Oh, but I won't beg the question
I'll just bask in her affection
Oh, no, I won't beg the question
I'll just bask in her affection
She lights up
[Verse 2]
I can't imagine her not here (Imagine her not here)
Improving my bleak atmosphere (Bleak atmosphere)
That little legend never wains (Never wains)
She is the reason I'm still sane (Reason I'm still sane)
Please, God, don't let me quench that fire (Quench that fire)
By dragging her into my mire (Into my mire)
I need that ever present bloom (Ever present bloom)
To cast out every shadow

[Chorus]
She lights up (Hey)
When she sees me
And I still
Don't know why (Hey, hey)
Oh, but I won't beg the question
I'll just bask in her affection
Oh, no, I won't beg the question
I'll just bask in her affection
She lights up (Hey, hey)

[Outro]
And I light up
And I light up (Oh-woah)
And I light up (Hey, hey, hey, hey)
And I light up
