I’m Beginning To See The Light
Ella Fitzgerald and Ink Spots Lyrics

I never cared much for moonlit skies
I never had an interest in the romanticism associated with moonlit skies

I never wink back at fireflies
I never used to pay attention to the simple pleasures of nature, such as fireflies

But now that the stars are in your eyes
But now that I see the reflection of the stars in your eyes, I'm realizing the beauty of nature

I'm beginning to see the light
I'm starting to understand and appreciate the things I used to overlook

I never went in for afterglow
I never cared for the lingering feeling of euphoria after a romantic moment

Or candlelight on the mistletoe
Or the traditional romantic setting of candlelight under the mistletoe

But now when you turn the lamp down low
But now, when you create a romantic atmosphere by lowering the lamp, I can appreciate it

Used to ramble through the park
I used to wander aimlessly through the park without paying attention to my surroundings

Shadowboxing in the dark
I used to engage in meaningless activities without purpose or direction

Then you came and caused a spark
But then you came into my life and ignited a passion within me

That's a four-alarm fire now
That passion has grown into a full-fledged intense emotion

I never made love by lantern-shine
I never experienced the romanticism of making love by the soft glow of a lantern

I never saw rainbows in my wine
I never saw the beauty of life and love reflected in simple things like the color of wine

But now that your lips are burning mine
But now, with your passionate kiss, I see the beauty of love everywhere

I'm beginning to see the light
I'm finally realizing and appreciating the beauty and magic of life and love
