One year nine months and eighty days
I’ve waited for more than I hoped to say
Time waits for no man yet it waits for you
For you…light up my life
Sing when it hurts then it’s over and take the pain away
I’m scared of forgetting it all
And holding out for a little more
You believe anything they want you to
We’re chasing heights that we’ll never reach
In love with something we’ll never be
I’m sinking first in line to keep amused
Amused…light up my life
I can’t shake these safety numbers
Wasting all your promises on me
To enjoy a simple life
