Turn Up the Bright Lights Lyrics
It's a lot like falling
Taking that first step onto the street
The whole night before you
Spreading out like a Technicolor dream
So take this city into your arms and hold it like a kiss
Don't it feel like flying, darlin', what could be better than this?
Turn up the bright lights
Light up the world tonight
Shine like a star
shine above and sail away
Turn up the bright lights
On a Paris morning
Long before the sun would dare to rise
Walking on the river
Reflecting diamonds in your eyes
So take this city and catch your breath and listen to the song
Cause she moves like music, darlin', but in a moment she'll be gone
Turn up the bright lights
Light up the world tonight
Shine like a star
Shine above and sail away
Turn on the mystery
There's no other place to be
It's only you and me
Beneath this perfect sky
Turn on the bright lights
Turn on the bright lights
So take this city and catch your breath and hold it like a kiss...
Turn up the bright lights
Light up the world tonight
Shine like a star
Shine above and sail away
Turn on the mystery
There's no other place to be
It's only you and me
Beneath this perfect sky
Turn up the bright lights
Light up the world tonight
Shine like a star
Shine above and sail away
Turn up the bright lights
Light up the world tonight
Taking that first step onto the street
The whole night before you
Spreading out like a Technicolor dream
Don't it feel like flying, darlin', what could be better than this?
Light up the world tonight
Shine like a star
shine above and sail away
Turn up the bright lights
Long before the sun would dare to rise
Walking on the river
Reflecting diamonds in your eyes
Cause she moves like music, darlin', but in a moment she'll be gone
Light up the world tonight
Shine like a star
Shine above and sail away
There's no other place to be
It's only you and me
Beneath this perfect sky
Turn on the bright lights
Turn on the bright lights
Light up the world tonight
Shine like a star
Shine above and sail away
There's no other place to be
It's only you and me
Beneath this perfect sky
Light up the world tonight
Shine like a star
Shine above and sail away
Light up the world tonight

Should be:
Turn up the bright lights Light up the world tonight Shine like the stars shine Above Ile Saint Louis
(island in Siene River in Paris)
This sounds right. I was confused when I looked up the lyrics and saw that version of the chorus on all the lyrics sites. I could've sworn I heard Saint Louis. Glad I heard right.
