Matilda an Acoustic

The Ugandan sun makes you look brighter than you actually are
and when it shines on your face I see my reflection in your eyes
and when the moonlight comes, I think of you throughout the night
you make me smile in my sleep, you know your smile lights up my life
Matilda, Matilda
I always wanna be with you even though you make my heart go pararira
and I just love it when you talk, I wonder who polished your voice
your unmistakable laugh is the one that inspired me to sing
this song that I’m singing for you, and all I want is to see your smile
Matilda, Matilda
You light up my life
You light up my life
You light up my life
You light up my life
Everyday I think of you, as the one who turned my life around coz
all through the stormy days, you made my way seem bright
even through the heartache and pain, you were there to make my burden light
you filled the whole in my soul, and I will stand by you till the end of the
road
Matilda, Matilda
I was thinking the other day, about the words you always say to me, how
we always talking about, the way we want our future life to be
I was thinking crowns and a palace for me to be the king and you the queen
of this kingdom called you and I, I pray the Lord does answer me this prayer
Matilda, Matilda
You light up my life
You light up my life
You light up my life
You light up my life
If I were to die, I pray the Lord my soul to take, I
know leaving you behind, won’t be the simplest thing for me to do
Probably I’ll be going ahead, to help the one above prepare a place
A special one just for you, but until that day finally comes
Matilda, you know that you will always be the one who lights up my life
You light up my life
You light up my life
You light up my life
You light up my life
You light up my life
Matilda, You light up my life
