Sunlight (or sunshine).
What Goes Up And Down But Doesn’t Move?

Tongue Can’t Taste, Throat Can’t Swallow
What has a tongue that can’t taste, a throat that can’t swallow, eyes that can’t see and a soul that will never die?
A shoe. It has a tongue, a throat, eyes (or eyelets) and a sole. I used soul here or else it would have given the answer away, but this riddle works best when told rather than read. And as the joke goes, old shoes never die, they just lose their sole.
I Used to Be The Light of Your Life
I used to be the light of your life,
I’d keep you warm while I cried,
Now I’m forgotten and tossed away.
What am I?
A candle. They used to be a primary source of light, and to a lesser extent heat. The “crying” is the wax rolling down the candle.
