You Get Brighter Lyrics

You get brighter every day and every time I see you
Scattered brightness in your way and you taught me how to love you
And I know you belong to everybody but you can't deny that I'm you
I know you belong to everybody but you can't deny that I'm you
Oh no
Oh no

In the morning when I wake I moor my boat and greet you
Hold your brightness in my eye and I wonder what does sleep do
For you get brighter every day and every time I see you
Scattered brightness in your way and you taught me how to love you
And I know you belong to everybody but you can't deny that I'm you
I know you belong to everybody but you can't deny that I'm you
Oh no
Oh no

Oh wondrous light, light, light, lighter
You give all your brightness away and it only makes you brighter.
For you get brighter every day and every time I see you
Scattered brightness in your way and you taught me how to love you

And I know you belong to everybody but you can't deny that I'm you
I know you belong to everybody but you can't deny that I'm you
Oh no
Oh no

Krishna colors on the wall
You taught me how to love you
Krishna colors on the wall
You taught me how to love you
Krishna colors on the wall
You taught me how
Krishna colors on the wall
You taught me how
Krishna colors on the wall
You taught me how
Krishna colors on the wall
You taught me how
Krishna colors on the wall
You taught me how
Krishna colors on the wall
You taught me how
Krishna colors on the wall
You taught me how
Krishna colors on the wall
You taught me how
Krishna colors on the wall
You taught me how to love you
Krishna colors on the wall
You taught me how to love you
Krishna colors on the wall
You taught me

And I know you belong to everybody but you can't deny that I'm you
I know you belong to everybody but you can't deny that I'm you
Oh no
Oh no

You get brighter every day

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
