Before you I was a church Without a nickel or a prayer Before you I was a soul Without a lighter, held up in the air Don't know if I ever could thank you Near enough for the love since we met For every sunrise and sunset We light up the night The spark, it will rise It's more than enough To steal the dark from the skies We light up the night We're forever young You know true stars shine brighter than warm We light up the night Light up, light up the night Light up, light up the night Light up, light up the night Light up, light up Before you I was apart With no glitter on the floor Before you I was less calm With no hope Kissin' me out the door You're a dream I was always dreaming Can't believe I'm finally awake Holding you 'til the day break We light up the night The spark, it will rise It's more than enough To steal the dark from the skies We light up the night We're forever young You know true stars shine brighter than warm We light up the night Light up, light up the night Light up, light up the night Light up, light up the night Light up, light up We light up the night The spark, it will rise It's more than enough To steal the dark from the skies We light up the night We're forever young You know true stars shine brighter than warm We light up the night
