lyrics

Shine (Stewart)

I tend to spend so much time in the shadows
And, well, often I can't tell the wood from the trees
On the times i've opened up my eyes
The clouds have been blown from my skies
And I feel lifted
Because you shine

Now the heavens are shrouded
And I drift without direction
There's no light to lead me
No guiding star
You're a beacon that I can see
You rescued me in me deepest hour of need
Because you shine

Shine, Shine like a light on me
You illuminate and set me free
Shine down so I can see you shining down on me

I survived the car crash that almost killed the teenage dream
I'm scarred but I've starred in films that never even made the screen
I live with the delusion of a saviour and a has been
And still you say that its you who needs me.

On the times i've opened up my eyes
The clouds have been blown from my skies
And I feel lifted from my knees
Because you shine
