Jazz standard.
Story behind the song
About a year ago I decided to take voice lessons at my age... this song was my lesson. This is my band arrangement, this is NOT a karaoke track. I played all instruments on keyboard except for drums. I used Reason 4 for all instruments except piano (Alicia's Keys), and drums (Addictive Drums "Jazz Sticks Pak". So this song resulted from the year of voice lessons.
Lyrics
I never cared much for moonlit skies,
I never winked back at fireflies,
But now that the stars are in your eyes,
I'm beginning to see the light.
I never was in for afterglow,
Or candlelight on the mistletoe,
But now when you turn the lamp down low,
I'm beginning to see the light.
I used to ramble through the park,
Shadow boxing in the dark,
Then you came and caused a spark,
That's a four alarm fire now.
I never made love by lantern shine,
I never saw rainbows in my wine,
But now that your lips are burning mine,
I'm beginning to see the light.
