Debby Boone - You Light Up My Life Lyrics






So many nights
I'd sit by my window
Waiting for someone
To sing me his song
So many dreams
I've kept deep inside me
Alone in the dark
But now you've come along

And you
Light up my life
You give me hope
To carry on
You light up my days
And fill my nights
With song

Rolling at sea
Adrift on the waters
Could it be finally
I'm turning for home?
Finally, a chance
To say, "Hey, I love you"
Never again
To be all alone

And you
Light up my life
You give me hope
To carry on
You light up my days
And fill my nights
With song

And you
Light up my life
You give me hope
To carry on
You light up my days
And fill my nights
With song

It can't be wrong
When it feels so right
'Cause you
You light up my life

Debby Boone You Light Up My Life Comments
  1. L.... H....

    Psalm 138:7 New International Version (NIV)

    7 Though I walk in the midst of trouble,
    you preserve my life.
    You stretch out your hand against the anger of my foes;
    with your right hand you save me.

  2. M.... S....

    No more Friday Night Video, Top Billboard, etc, due
    to those disgusting, ear sore, talking and screaming, so called music
    started in mid or late 80's. These non-singers b*llshi* people called themselves
    singers when they did not know how to sing at all. These non-singing bastards
    forced their rotten a**es into the Friday Night Video and Top Billboards where they
    once stood for real music.
    The 70's and 80's died due to those non-singing motherf**kers.

  3. m.... ....

    This was number 1 to "Nobody Does It Better" at number 2? You gotta be kidding!

    m.... ....

    Did you see. The twinkal in her eyes

  4. B.... B....

    If anyone ever has a chance to “light up “ someone’s life, then don’t screw it up. It’s a serious commitment that’s not to be taken lightly. If done correctly the rewards will be limitless, but not without sacrifice.

  5. D.... N....

    I love the meaningful song and the transparent voice of the singer.thanks so much

  6. T.... ....

    soulless bastards! this shits depressing.

  7. Y.... P....

    Thank you.

  8. J.... F....

    Wow, I guess I was too young to realize she was HOT.

    J.... F....

    nice n' furry too.... ;)

  9. s.... u....

    where was this? and when?

  10. C.... A....

    This is music isto é música eso és música soul music

  11. m.... g....

    I remember my mother

  12. B.... J....

    Even though I don’t like to use the “d” word, I sing this to my dog, Molly. She’s more than just a therapy dog, but my best friend. She truly does light up my life, and I love her so much. I can’t imagine my life without her!

    B.... J....

    "D word" Are you for real...

  13. s.... u....

    Just got goose bumps watching this

  14. h.... d....

    No wonder 15 year old me, thought about her, A LOT!

  15. P.... S....

    Back in the day .... Yeap ¡¡!!

  16. L.... m....

    Truly a classic song.... I remember singing this one growing up... Still as touching now as it was in my youth

  20. w.... v....

    Es. Un. Ángel. Que. Lindo. Y. Hermoso. Que. Canta. Gracias. Retro.

  21. C.... B....

    Hermosa canción, una artista de verdad en su sencillez su pulcritud para vestirse, una gran canción para épocas mas sencillas y gente mas sentimental, hoy los jóvenes son fríos, vanales por eso que llaman música y los altera psicologicamente.

  22. A.... B....

    Those were the Afflictions she was getting. Sometimes a song takes your mind off of all the other afflictions your getting. But some songs are just another affliction on top of what your already getting.

    A.... B....

    Wait...What???

  23. T.... L....

    Fucking bitch stole the song . Daddy helped. She didn’t have a brain to sing the right way

    T.... L....

    She was hired to do the song, by the writer... sang it better too.

    T.... L....

    what the fuck are you talking about? Debby did great with this song, nobody could have done this song any better!!!

  24. �.... ....

    So many nights, I'd sit by my window,

    Waiting for someone to sing me his song.

    So many dreams, I kept deep inside me,

    Alone in the dark, but now you've come along.

    And you light up my life,

    You give me hope, to carry on.

    You light up my days

    And fill my nights with song.



    Rollin' at sea, adrift on the waters

    Could it be finally, I'm turning for home

    Finally a chance to say, "Hey, I Love You"

    Never again to be all alone.

    And you light up my life,

    You give me hope, to carry on.

    You light up my days

    And fill my nights with song.

    cause You, You light up my life

    You give me hope to carry on



    You light up my day's

    And fill my life with song

    It can't be wrong when it feels so right

    cause you, you light up my life

I hope nothing but the worst for you and everyone that likes this crap. I hate you

    T.... ....

  52. T.... ....

    In 1978 When I seen this when i was a little kid I told myself I wish I look American ...LOL

  53. T.... ....

    Amazing song

  54. �.... ....

    還是老歌有那個雋永的韻味且又值得回味的。不像現在的歌曲很多都是鬼吼亂叫的,還沒內涵呢!

    HAPPY 63RD BIRTHDAY DEBORAH "DEBBY" BOONE (SEPTEMBER 22, 2019)

  61. M.... d....

    for so long there is just
    the lantern and I standing in the middle of my soul
    hope has become so distant to me that I almost walked away
    from what I have been waiting for since I can remember
    But the lantern made me remember that I was there
    waiting for a light to match mine
    a twin flame with which my soul could be entwined

    i hope you keeping the same vigil
    wait for me to come home
    home to your soul

  62. S.... S....

    Thank you, Jesus, for lighting up my life, in these dark times.

    S.... S....

    Amen ❤

    S.... S....

    You two are the only other ones who think this song might be about Him. 😊❤

  63. J.... T....

    Beautiful song.

  64. T.... ....

    I had a crush on Debby Boone when I was in the 5th grade that was 1978...And I still do...

    T.... ....

    I would still like to make love to her

  65. M.... R....

    Solo dios me
    Ilumina

  66. a.... m....

    The people who listen to the song are all upper-class white people.What's even more surprising is that there's not a single black man.

    a.... m....

    @Malcom Marcone I was going to say asia mad dog, but I suspect they've been an idiot for more than just one day.

    a.... m....

    asia mad dog No wonder you call yourself a mad DOG.

    a.... m....

    Yeah, nobody grabbing their little crotch buddy, smoking dope, flashing gang signs, stealing your car, stealing your tires.... Yes, we really need diversity. Crock of shit.

    a.... m....

    @Ken Perk exactly 💯

    a.... m....

    Pat Boone's daughter.   I don't think it was possible to be more white than that, back then.

  67. w.... ....

    *Good times back in the 1970s*
    There were problems but most people had a positive attitude and hope for finding love.

    w.... ....

    Well I remember in the 70s certain things on TV or in the street There wasn't much negativity everyone act really nice ...I wish there wasn't any Gangster Rap Music That's what I notice in the late 80s when people act like a street gangs or Penitentiary inmate even today 30yrs now..That stuff is old now..

    w.... ....

    @Theonlyonestanding Yes, when crap was legitimized as ok, it's filth and talentlessness seeped into America for the worse.

  68. M.... D....

    Very touching song sung beautifully. maurice

  69. C.... ....

    I was listening in 1977 when this song made #1 loved it then, and love it even more now. Timeless beauty, and the song was awesome also.

  70. D.... D....

    שיר, מילים וביצוע מרגשים ברמות.

  71. D.... C....

    Absolutely beautiful!!

  72. f.... b....

    That is how an Angel sings.

  73. a.... ....

    I had a crush on her when I was a kid in the 70's, and I still do. Stunningly gorgeous!!

    a.... ....

    Yes, agreed. She is an angel.

  74. K.... R....

    This song makes me cry BIG TIME, to me, it's a sad song

  75. j.... j....

    You light up my life came out the year my son was born, and I sang it to him because he DID light my life up, Thank you Debbie 🤟💕

  76. B.... L....

    Das ist Musik, zuhören..?

  77. J.... M....

    This may be the hokiest song ever written. It's hard to even listen to the entire song. Yeeeshhhh.

    J.... M....

    I could name you at least a thousand more that are much worse. Let me get out the Bill Board charts for the 80s, 90s and 2000s and just read them to you.

  78. r.... c....

  86. J.... J....

  93. D.... M....

    lovely stuff..fav from school days

  94. B.... C....

    Many don’t realize this song was sung to the Lord Jesus Christ.

    B.... C....

    It was mentioned in the Simpsons episode were Homer & Marge meet in high school.

  95. S.... ....

    All Class

    S.... ....

    Why she didn't curse, grab her crotch, straddle a pole and grind on it, straddle another singer and grind on them, get political, threaten to bust a cap in someone or take off most of her clothes. And they call her a singer. Hmm

  96. l.... ....

    참 좋은 노래.
    참 좋은 음악.

  97. R.... H....

    I remember my friends Mom writing this in her Birthday card...You light up my life....it's funny what you remember so long ago..
