You Were My Light Lyrics - The Definitive Collection - Edgar Winter

You were my light 

Ever since the first day 

That I met you 

I knew that I could not forget you 

And though all your friends said 

You are no good for me 

All they had to give 

Was their sympathy 

They say I'm not the man 

That I used to be 

I guess that's the way 

That it had to be 

'Cause you were my light 

My wrong and my right 

You were my sight 

My day and my night 

You are the one who took the time 

To understand 

Showed me what it was 

To be your man 

And lord knows if I hurt you 

I hope you understood 

That I was just trying to do 

What I thought was good 

You say I'm not the man 

That I used to be 

I guess that's the way 

That it had to be 

You were my light 

My wrong and my right 

You were my sight 

My day and my night 

Now that your memory 

Begins to fade 

I can't help a crying 

Bout the games we played 

And though I never, never 

See your face again 

No I feel the same 

Right to begin 

You say I'm not the man 

That I used to be 

I guess that's the way 

That it had to be 

You were my light 

My wrong and my right 

You were my sight 

My day and my night
