Shine On |
Shine on, brighter than the sun |
Live for every moment, before the moment’s gone |
We shine on you and me tonight |
Way across the universe, burning like a fire in the night; |
I was looking at a photograph |
Taken in a garden long before the war |
And out on the lawn |
There were old men and dogs and little children |
All of them gone forever; |
There were people by the waterside |
Standing in the same place where I am today; |
Nothing has changed — but you know |
That time is moving like a river |
It can only be love forever; |
We shine on, brighter than the sun |
Live for every moment, before the moment’s gone |
We shine on, you and me tonight |
Way across the universe |
Burning like a fire in the night; |
There are those who can never cross |
The space between a father and a son |
When they are young |
We must say all the words that should be spoken |
Before they are lost forever; |
And I was looking at a photograph |
Taken from a window way above the world |
We’ve got to learn |
We must leave here a garden for our children |
When we are gone forever; |
We shine on, brighter than the sun |
Live for every moment, before the moment’s gone |
We shine on, you and me tonight |
Way across the universe |
Burning like a fire in the night; |
Leave here a garden |
Leave here a new world |
Shine on |
