Carole King (born 9 February 1942) is a jewish-american singer-songwriter. She was most active as a singer during the first half of the 1970s, but she was a successful songwriter for considerably longer both before and after this period. Born in 1942 in Brooklyn, New York, Carole Klein (as she was then known) started out playing the piano and then moved on to singing, forming a vocal quartet called the Co-Sines in high school. While attending Queens College, King befriended Paul Simon, Neil Sedaka and Gerry Goffin. Goffin and King soon formed a songwriting partnership, eventually marrying, working in the famous Brill Building, where chart-topping hits were churned out during the 1960s.

Brighter Lyrics

Carole King

We've been knowing each other
For many a year, it's true
And I can't think of anyone else
Can make me feel as good as you
Yeah, you make my day
A little bit brighter in every way
I'm so glad to have you
In this old troubled time
When true love and understanding, child
AARe so hard to find
Yes, you make my day
A little bit brighter every day
SOme people live in darkness
Their whole life through
I just know that I'd have been one of them
If it hadn't been for you
Now, sometimes I feel afraid
AS we all tend to do
But I think of the loving good times we've had
And I know we're gonna make it through
Cause you make my day
A little bit brighter in every way
