Thinking back, could I feel much older? 
And my stance couldn't feel much colder
Can they tell what I'm getting over now? 
In the park I've seen you walking
And in my dreams I've heard you talking 
Can they tell what I'm getting over now?

'Cos you light up the world 
Yeah, you light up the world

In this time and times to come 
I do not know if your hopes have won
I do not know where you think you'll find it 
And I do not care if I fall behind
Thinking back I was so much younger 
Thinking back you were so much more tender
Thinking back, will it make me hunger now?

For you, light up the world
Yeah, you light up the world
There's something about the girl
There's something about her world
There's something for everyone

Have you found yourself in the frame of mind?
Where no-one can be too kind
And there's so little lost
There must be a life to trust there
And if I try I know I'll be there
And hold and be mine

For you, light up the world
Yeah, you light up the world
There's something about the girl
There's something about her world
There's something for everyone
