lyrics

Brilliant like a blue sky in January,
dazzling the snow white on the ground.
Ordinary things, ordinary things sparkle when you're around.

Joyful like the birds in spring, humming a melody.
Reminds me of your favorite song.
From the bottom of my heart at the top of my lungs - I sing along.

But I don't know the words, so you're laughing, you're laughing,
Oh - that's magic to me.
I'm smiling like a fool and hearing music, music where noise used to be.

You make everything brighter. A lighter in the dark, all kinds of fire from just a tiny spark. Brighter. A full moon in the night, and the world shimmers underneath your shine. Brighter.

Easy like a warm breeze, barely whispering. I can tell it's asking that willow to dance. The sun is sinking low, this perfect shade of gold, and you take my hand. But you know I don't know how to move so you're laughing, you're laughing Oh - that's magic to me. I'm smiling like a fool at all these colors, these colors in shades I've never seen.

You make everything brighter. A lighter in the dark, all kinds of fire from just a tiny spark. Brighter. A full moon in the night, and the world shimmers underneath your shine. Brighter.

I like the way you slow me down. Lift the shadows and show me how to see beauty, anytime I want to I just look at you.

You make it brighter. A lighter in the dark, all kinds of fire from just a tiny spark. Brighter. A full moon in the night, and the world shimmers underneath your shine. Brighter.
