Shine On |
I took an hundred and ten pictures of you |
Put them all around me and wondered |
what to do Like a temple in memory, |
a shrine in your name |
To days I don’t remember, |
to nights I can’t reclaim |
I took a part of my life, |
about eighteen years long |
Pulled it all to pieces and tried to make a song |
With a groove you could dance to, a tune you |
could hum |
I sung to my reflection, looking for the one |
Man sees the boy in his eyes |
Boy sees the man, singing: |
Shine on I thought you were gone |
I thought you gave in Deserted me long ago |
Shine on You’re somebody’s son |
You’re laughing again |
You’re letting the feeling grow |
I took a hold of myself. |
It’s not how I planned |
Pulled myself together and acted like a man |
I got a face I must keep up, responsible me I keep it on my shoulders for everyone to see |
But man sees the boy in his eyes |
Boy sees the man, singing: |
Shine on I thought you were gone |
I thought you gave in Deserted me long ago |
Shine on You’re somebody’s son |
You’re laughing again |
You’re letting the feeling grow |
Letting the feeling grow, |
giving the years back to me Letting the whole world know |
that somebody in there loves me Man sees the boy when he cries |
Boy sees the man clinging on to him |
Man sees the boy in his eyes |
Boy sees the man, singing: |
Shine on |
