I'm Beginning to See the Light (Album Version)

I'm Beginning to See the Light - Duke Ellington

I never cared much for moonlit skies

I never wink back at fireflies

But now that the stars are in your eyes

I'm beginning to see the light

I never went in for afterglow

Or candle light on the mistletoe

But now when you turn the lamp down low

I'm beginning to see the light

Used to ramble through the park

Shadow boxing in the dark

Then you came and caused a spark

That's a four alarm fire now

I never made love by lantern shine

I never saw rainbows in my wine

But now that your lips are burning mine

I'm beginning to see the light
