You Lit up the Night Lyrics

I know, I'm poor
We've been over this before
One day I'll come into money and we will make those changes surely
Days and nights will intertwine, ours the next house on the line
And when that surge comes with the power the dark of night will be devoured

I know, I've had
A moment called a watershed
My childhood well it ended then.
My second one could not begin.
For 50 years or twice my life, you've lit up the darkest night.
No city sought or stole your love.
You both gave it all to us. You lit up the night
