I see you stranger standing there, far across the room

Do you remember when Fort 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 world with a spark

No one here tonight would guess how wrapped up we were

chorus

Once you were the light of my life, you really made me shine

And every letter that you wrote to me was a Valentine

These days all we've got to say is how ya doing I'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



chorus
