From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

“Heartlight”
Single by Neil Diamond
from the album Heartlight
Released 1982
Genre Rock
Length 4:25
Writer(s) Neil Diamond, Carole Bayer Sager and Burt Bacharach

"Heartlight" is a song written by Neil Diamond, Carole Bayer Sager and her then-husband Burt Bacharach[1], and recorded by Diamond in 1982. It reached #5 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts, becoming one of Diamond's most successful singles, chartwise.

The song is inspired by the blockbuster movie E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial. When E.T. (Extra-Terrestrial) leaves Earth, his heart glows a luminous red; hence the title of the song. The entire song is about an E.T. which came to Earth but unfortunately never made it on time to the spacecraft. The E.T. then spent time on Earth and made a new friend, persuading to help the E.T. return home.

The lyrics of the song are based on the famous scenes in the movie. For example:

Don't wake me up too soon
Gonna take a ride across the moon
You and me

is a strong reference to E.T and Elliot riding a bicycle across the moon, heading to the forest.
