Duke Ellington
I’m Beginning to See the Light
[Verse 1]
I never cared much for moonlit skies
I never wink back at fireflies
But now that the stars are in your eyes
I'm beginning to see the light
[Verse 2]
I never went in for afterglow
Or candlelight on the mistletoe
But now when you turn the lamp down low
I'm beginning to see the light
[Bridge]
I used to ramble through the park
Shadowboxing in the dark
Then you came and caused a spark
That's a four-alarm fire now
[Verse 3]
Never made love by lantern-shine
Never saw rainbows in my winе
But now that your lips are burning mine
I'm beginning to see thе light
[Verse 1]
I never cared much for moonlit skies
And I never wink back at fireflies
But now that the stars are in your eyes
I'm beginning to see the light
[Verse 2]
Never cared much for afterglow
Who needed candlelight on mistletoe?
But now when they turn the lamp down low
I'm beginning to see the light
[Bridge]
I used to ramble through the park
Shadowboxing in the dark
Then you came and caused a spark
That's a four-alarm fire now
[Verse 3]
I never made love by lantern-shine
Never saw rainbows in my wine
But now that your lips are burning mine
I'm beginning to see the light
