Gotye - In Your Light

"This is a Fan video I created for the song "In Your Light", from Gotye's CD "Making Mirrors" - released on Universal Republic ©2012

Written by Wally De Backer, (Aka Gotye).

From http://hollowverse.com late 2012.

Gotye, also known as Wouter “Wally” De Backer, was born in Bruges, Belgium and was raised mostly in Montmorency, Melbourne, Australia.

Gotye seems to be non-religious in a Christian sort of way. He celebrates Christmas–probably the most secular of all Christian holidays.

His song, “In Your Light” is often interpreted as a religious song, and Gotye himself described it as “vaguely Christian pop.” But he also called the song “a piece of shit,” so Christian rockers should be wary of putting him on their top ten list.


Lyrics

"In Your Light"

Get up in the morning
I can't keep it in
I'm falling all over myself
And I could jump out of my skin
Wanna break the door down
Just to greet the day
Coz there ain't nothing that's more certain
To keep my blues away

And I say
(La la, hey hey)
And I say
(La la, hey hey)

And it can settle the sadness
And the voices in my head
When I'm in the glow of the warmth you throw
I can put all that to bed

(In your light, just when I'm in your light)
(In your light, just when I'm in your light)
(In your light, just when I'm in your light)
(In your light, just when I'm in your light)
In your light, just when I'm in your light
(In your light, just when I'm in your light)
And I won't get by if you take that light away
(In your light, just when I'm in your light)

And when you're smiling on me
That is all I need
To put behind me all my worry
And life's complexities

It may be only a moment
But the world just falls away
And I forget myself
And everything else
That depressed me yesterday

And I can sing
(La la, hey hey)
Yeah I sing
(La la, hey hey)

When I'm in your light
All of this is clear
If only I could always be just as I am right here
When I'm in your light, just when I'm in your light
And I won't get by if you take that light away

(La la, hey hey)
(In your light, just when I'm in your light)

When I'm in your light
Nothing brings me down
If only I could always feel just as I do right now
When I'm in your light, just when I'm in your light
And I won't get by if you take that light away

When I'm in your light
All of this is clear
(In your light, just when I'm in your light)
If only I could always be just as I am right here
(In your light, just when I'm in your light)
In your light, just when I'm in your light
(In your light, just when I'm in your light)
And I won't get by if you take that light away
(In your light, just when I'm in your light)
No I won't get by if you take that light away
(In your light, just when I'm in your light)
No I won't get by if you take that light away
