I see you stranger standing there

Far across the room

Do you remember when Forth 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 would with a spark



No one here tonight would guess how

wrapped up we were



Once I was the light of your life

You really made me shine

Every letter that you sent to me

Was a valentine

These days all we've got to say

Is how you doin, 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 of 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



Once I was the light of your life

You really made me shine

Every letter that you sent to me

Was a valentine

These days all we've got to say

Is how you doin, I'm fine

But once I was the light of your life

And you were the light of mine
