Bright Orange and Yellow constant light emiting heat and lasted for seconds.

I was about 8 yrs. old one night when i had gotten up to to turn a fan on and open my window. It had not hit me yet that i was able to see in my room with out my light being on.  Thats when i was startled and i looked out the window thinking it was day time but finding a light yellowish orange.  I did not know what it was but i had ran out of my room to my parents room that was directly to my right if i was facing that same window.  When i got to my parents room i had notice by looking out of there window that the light was gone.  I had gone back to my room and turned my light on and did not bother to get my parents up.  I remember leaving the light on all night and I also remember that while I was looking at the light it gave heat and i can compare it to the heat of being in front of a TV or not as hot as a heat lamp.  This light did not move or apear to be moving but was fixed.  And then in seconds gone.
I hope I was not upducted.
