See The Light
Mandy Moore and Zachary Levi Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All those days watching from the windows
All those years outside looking in
All that time never even knowing
Just how blind I've been
Now I'm here, blinking in the starlight
Now I'm here, suddenly I see
Standing here, it's all so clear
I'm where I'm meant to be

And at last I see the light
And it's like the fog has lifted
And at last I see the light
And it's like the sky is new
And it's warm and real and bright
And the world has somehow shifted
All at once everything looks different
Now that I see you

All those days chasing down a daydream
All those years living in a blur
All that time, never truly seeing
Things the way they were
Now she's here, shining in the starlight
Now she's here, suddenly I know
If she's here, it's crystal clear
I'm where I'm meant to go

And at last I see the light

And it's like the fog has lifted

And at last I see the light

And it's like the sky is new

And it's warm and real and bright
And the world has somehow shifted
All at once, everything is different
Now that I see you





Now that I see you

Overall Meaning

The song "I See The Lights" is a duet performed by Mandy Moore and Zachary Levi that was featured in the 2010 Disney animation film "Tangled". The song features the moment when the main characters, Rapunzel and Flynn Rider, finally realize their true feelings for each other. The song opens with a reflection on Rapunzel's past, when she was locked up in a tower and only able to view the world from a window. The lyrics suggest that she had been blind to the truth of her situation and her own desires. Flynn also reflects on his past; even though he has been out in the world, he hasn't truly found what he's looking for until he meets Rapunzel.


As the song progresses, Rapunzel and Flynn realize that they have found what they were searching for in each other. They see the light and everything becomes clearer, as if a fog has lifted. The feeling is warm and real and bright, and the world shifts around them. In short, the song is about finding your true North, your anchor, your "meant to be".


The lyrics are beautifully written and convey the emotions of the characters well. It is an uplifting and romantic song that enhances the atmosphere of the scene in which it is featured.
