Turn Up the Bright Lights Songtext
von Better Than Ezra

It's a lot like fire, taking that first step on to the street
The whole night before you spreading out like a techno colored dream
So take this city into your arms and hold it like a kiss
Don't it feel like flying darling, what could be better than this?

Turn up the bright lights, light up the world tonight
Shine like the stars shine above and sail away
Turn up the bright lights

On a Paris morning long before the sun was there to rise
Walking on the river, reflecting diamonds in your eyes
So take this city and catch your breath and listen to your song
'Cause your move is like music darling, but in a moment she'll be gone


Turn up the bright lights, light up the world tonight
Shine like the stars shine above and sail away
Turn on the mystery, there's no other place to be
It's only you and me beneath this perfect sky
Turn on the bright lights, turn on the bright lights

So take this city and catch your breath and hold it like a kiss

Turn up the bright lights, light up the world tonight
Shine like the stars shine above and sail away
Turn on the mystery, there's no other place to be
It's only you and me beneath this perfect sky

Turn up the bright lights, light up the world tonight
Shine like the stars shine above and sail away
Turn up the bright lights, light up my world tonight
