In the light of day only
Light doesn't fade

Memory has never been my strongest suit
But I swear that I can recall some dozen versions of you, for

In the light of day only
Light doesn't fade

There was a time when we were so young
There was a time we were so wild
There was a time when we made up our minds
Didn't we darling? But

In the light of day
Only light doesn't fade

Every man that you've ever been
I've been in love with him
I fell in love with your picture, I fell in love with your name
I fell in love with your flame that promised and promised
To burn up all of my fear for me, but

In the light of day only
Light doesn't fade
