Shine |
November of '43 |
On a boat comin' 'cross the sea |
He left a boy, came back a man |
She started running' when she saw his face |
It’d been 655 days |
Since she held his hand |
He got down on one knee |
and pulled out that ring |
That he bought in Aberdeen |
And when it hit that New York sky |
It shined just like a spotlight |
A star up in the night sky |
The kind of thing that takes your breath away |
Her eyes sparked like that diamond |
With love beaming from 'em |
The kind of light that’s never gonna fade |
It’s gonna shine |
For the next 55 years |
Through the laughter and the tears |
My grandma always fore that band |
through atom bombs and a baby boom |
Dr. King and a man on the moon |
No it never left her hand |
On the day she passed away |
Mama put it on a chain |
Now and then on special days |
Mom would wear it around her neck |
Mama said one of these days |
I’d know why she gave me that ring |
Sittin' here I know she was right |
Oh, it’s knot the biggest stone you’ve ever seen |
But girl I can promise you one thing |
The rest of your life |
It’s gonna shine just like a spotlight |
A star up in the night sky |
The kind of thing that takes your breath away |
your eyes sparkled like that diamond |
With love beaming from 'em |
The kind of light that’s never, never, never gonna fade |
It’s gonna shine, shine, shine |
Shine, shine, shine |
Shine, shine, shine |
Like a beacon calling me home |
It’s gonna shine |
Oh yeah, shine, shine, shine |
